Brief videos and recent articles about 10 key topics
In 2013, the Markkula Center for Applied Ethics asked a number of Silicon Valley leaders and pioneers to highlight, in a series of brief videos, what they saw as particularly important issues in internet ethics. As we are about to enter 2017, it is striking to note that those issues (and the ethical dilemmas they often present) remain highly relevant.
We thought it would be interesting to pair each of the videos from that series with a link to a recent article that reflects the ongoing conversations around the issue raised in both:
