As Facebook Reels, Silicon Valley Dabbles in Ethics

Irina Raicu, Director of Internet Ethics, and Brian Green, Director of Technology Ethics, were quoted in an article for Religious News Services.

In an article for Religious News Service, Brian Green, Director of Technology Ethics and Irina Raicu, Director of Internet Ethics at Santa Clara University's Markkula Center expressed their opinions.

“I think it’s because every company is afraid that they’re the one that’s going to look like they have an ethical problem, “(But) actually ethics is normal, and we’re all doing ethics all the time.”, said Green.

“As more and more questions are posed … both the corporate departments in these companies and the people working in these companies — the technologists — have been taking more and more note of (ethics),” Raicu said, noting that Facebook has provided research ethics training since 2014.
