Introduction
Some people believe that you can tell who a person is by what they do
when no one is looking. Let's look at the following case. John Doe, a
nurse, has downloaded an application to her phone that allows him to
download copyrighted textbooks for a nursing course (that Doe is going
to take) without his Internet Service Provider knowing it. The
application is called "Cloak" as in cloak of invisibility (a hooded coat
one wears to make it so others cannot see you). The application
disguises his phone and makes it so the information on it is
inaccessible. John is aware that other people who are of a lower
socio-economic status (like him) also use this software program for the
same reason (and to save money). John Doe knows that his religion
forbids him from using this application to download in this manner. John
Doe is focused on his own economic situation and does not consider the
publisher, author, and others involved in the books. Think about a
course of social action; what social values should be used to address
this moral issue and conflict.
