The stake

The main goal of Theethicalweb.com, is first of all to offer to all a platform allowing a rigorous but serene debate, on the themes of online publishers responsibilities and more generally ethics put into practice in the Cyberspace environment.

It is then a question of framing, in the eyes of all, in an indisputable and immediately verifiable way by any layman, the effective integrity of the online production of all the members of the ethical charter and its true compliance.

I.T. Services, App. and software development, multimedia creations and virtual universes intended for the public... the establishment of a set of three labels, will then follow the official presentation of the Charter, in order to make this production as flawless, inspiring and clear as possible.

Because it is all around this global technological production and its life cycle, that trust and solid relationships with users, customers, service providers and partners are elaborated, well beyond the websites and App. terms and conditions of use, or the simple classical contract and its inherent specifications.

All the actors of this factual relationship must understand the fundamental importance of this moral contract in time and its very essence today, as well as the eco-responsible challenge we are dealing with (this topic is indeed one of the main pillars of the Charter).

All members must agree to submit to moral behavior which severely limits or eliminates for example, the dissemination of violent editorial content, dissemination of fake news or behaviours leading to discriminatory aggressions, intentionally injurious or dangerous for the private life or  physical integrity of individuals.

In conclusion, we, I.T. professionals, have the enormous responsibility to protect as much as possible, all users but also the authors of all this algorithmic, graphic, multimedia and editorial bubbling, from themselves, in what alas now looks like... a complex digital jungle.
