CREATE A CASE SCENARIO AND DISCUSS IT (CAN BE JUST IDEAS, DIAGRAMS, OR FRAMEWORKS). NOT AN ESSAYThis is a link to related Case Studies that ACM professionals have designed to guide computing professionals on how to apply the Code in some situations. (https://www.acm.org/code-of-ethics/case-studies)
This link is as a preamble to the code listing and provides more insight into the standards.
Pick one of the following standards (2.5 – 2.9) (https://www.acm.org/code-of-ethics#h-2.5-give-comprehensive-and-thorough-evaluations-of-computer-systems-and-their-impacts,-including-analysis-of-possible-risks.)

2.7 Foster public awareness and understanding of computing, related technologies, and their consequences.
2.8 Access computing and communication resources only when authorized or when compelled by the public good.
2.9 Design and implement systems that are robustly and usably secure.
Find a Case Study listed in one of the tech websites or blogs ( or any that we might have discussed in the discussion groups) and match it to one of the standards listed.
- Illustrate the Case Study pictorially. (It can be a diagram)
- Write the case study scenario in your own words.
- List the principle that comes into question while analyzing the case study
- Discuss how you would handle the situation by:
a. Discussing your interpretation of the standard
b. Your analysis of the case study
c. Your final thoughts on the related ethics issue.
