Paper For Above instruction

Question 1: Do we, as a society, have a special obligation to disabled persons to ensure that they have full Internet access? Consider the ethical principles supporting equal access and the societal benefits of inclusive technology. Refer to recent developments or policies less than 4 years old, providing credible sources.

Question 2: Is the argument that by providing improved access and services for disabled persons, non-disabled users will benefit as well, a reasonable argument? Discuss the potential benefits and risks of reasoning along this line, including scenarios where non-disabled persons do not benefit. Provide a theoretical rationale in support of your responses.

Question 3: Would the potential lack of benefit to non-disabled users be a reason to refrain from investing in software for disabled people? Defend your position with ethical and social considerations and relevant theories.

Question 4: Should Web sites that promote racist speech be allowed to thrive on the Internet? Has the proliferation of these sites increased racism globally, or can the Internet serve as a force to reduce racism? Elaborate beyond simple yes or no, supporting your view with theoretical rationale.

Question 5: Regarding the use of expert systems (ES) in critical decisions, such as healthcare, should “expert doctors” be permitted to make life-and-death decisions? Who is ultimately responsible for the ES’s decisions— the hospital, the knowledge engineer, or the system itself? Use ethical theories and the case of Therac-25 for context.

Question 6: What obligations does the United States have to ensure full Internet access for all citizens, considering its role as a democratic nation? Does it extend to developing countries? Discuss the scope, limitations, and ethical rationale for your position. Also, consider whether U.S. engineers should design applications for remote and low-bandwidth areas, and who should fund such developments.
