In today's digital age, technology profoundly influences our daily decisions, from what we buy to where we work. This report raises awareness about digital ethics, which is crucial for both users and developers. By examining the moral implications of technology, we facilitate a deeper comprehension of the tools at the user's disposal and encourage developers to adopt ethical practices in their creation.
