Emerging technology week 5 – Ethical concerns

When it comes to creating any form of media that users can experience/interact with, it is important that ethical concerns are taken into consideration, especially when it comes to the like of topics that are highly sensitive (ie, tragic events, private information, etc), especially if the form of media is anticipated to reach a wide audience range.

It is critical that proper consideration and thorough examination of the content planned to be showcased is checked, since it could end up provoking an unintended reaction that may end up sparking a negative response from users of the product.

Ethical concerns come in many different categories, ranging from what is usually expected, to sometimes very specific, it almost entirely depends on what the content is that ethical concerns are then discussed.

Even for example, if the content in question was of a news app that showed stories based on the user’s interests, it would have to consider what the user liked and disliked, the credibility of those articles, the sources of said articles, so on and so forth.
