> I need to gem up on Practical Ethics issues in Computing Science.

1. Privacy is now a deliverable on a coding level, from privacy  
compliant applications to privacy compliant technology

2. Energy, as we move towards a battery operated environment of  
sensor networks powerscavenging should be paramount.
3. EMF, with 'things' online through RFID, and readers everywhere,  
the level of EMF will rise drastically.
4. Databodies, if they do not get transparant, people will drop out,  
mess up databases and will not get the realtime benefits that ambient  
intelligence is promising.
5. Animism. Did things ask for this kind of connectivity?
