Technology & Ethics

Does technology erode ethics? Or does it help a person who would like to be ethical?

There's a case to be made for both.

Technology is just a tool. The machine uprising is still some time away. Till then, technology rests in the hands of man. Ethics (or a lack of them), however, are in his mind. There was voyeurism before porn websites or hidden cameras, violence before violent games, love before SMS.
My humble opinion

I agree Nupur. It seems silly to blame technology. Yet, it has added to man's ability to test the limits of personal ethics. We'll just have to live with it, I guess!
