Are other people doing it? -- So that is a reasonable test for ethical behavior? Wow. Other platforms similarly unethical behavior is NOT justification for lack of ethics. That might be a financial argument, but it is absolutely not a reasonable approach to ethics.
Legal vs. illegal is also not an appropriate basis for proper behavior. I think if we all used that standard for our personal interactions society would rapidly descend into chaos.
- matz1 7y agoEthics is relative, what one person deemed to be ethical might be not be for other.

- austhrow743 7y agoThe behaviour of others is absolutely something that should be considered when deciding if something is acceptable behaviour. Acceptable behaviour in a mosh pit is not acceptable behaviour in a grocery store check out line, because of how others are already acting and the pre established norms.
