The utilitarian theory of ethics takes a look at the consequences a decision will have, and makes a choice based on the one which has the greatest amount of good for the greatest number of individuals. This theory wants to know “which act creates the best consequence”

/in /by

The utilitarian theory of ethics takes a look at the consequences a decision will have, and makes a choice based on the one which has the greatest amount of good for the greatest number of individuals. This theory wants to know “which act creates the best consequence” (Lecture, Week 15). The three key principles that are tied to applying the utilitarian theory include: who will be impacted by the decision made or not made, performing a cost-benefit analysis for said individuals, and choosing the option that has the least harm for the least amount of people. The utilitarian approach overall wants to consider “the good that will come from the action or the harm it will prevent” (Santa, 2014).

 

When it comes to Instagram’s privacy policy, I believe that it would not be in the best favor of the greater good of those impacted for users’ content and information to be sold to third parties. The individuals who will be impacted by Instagram’s decision are users, Instagram, and the third parties who want to purchase information and content. If Instagram were to sell content to third parties then:

  • Users cost- No rights to their own content posted.
  • Users benefit- The potential to have their work seen by more people.
  • Instagram cost- Distrusted by users. People go to a different platform
  • Instagram benefit- More income from selling of content.
  • 3rd party cost- Possible to be sued by Instagram users.
  • 3rd party benefit- The use of materials for relatively low costs.

 

Based on the cost-benefit analysis above, the costs of the decision to sell content greatly outweigh the benefits. If Instagram were to lose its users because of the change in the privacy policy, then the entire platform would crumble as its users is the heart of what Instagram is.

Write 6 pages with APA style on Topic sex trade.

/in /by

This paper will prove that sex trade is one of the most negative phenomena in the life of the American society and show the effect that it has on females who are aged 12-15 and entered sex trade.

It may be particularly important to analyze the quantitative aspect of the issue in order to understand the scope of it. To begin with, it must be noticed that several years ago the population of people who were victims of sex trade almost reached 21 million people (“Child trafficking Statistics”, 2012). What is worst is that a relatively big number of instances is registered in the United States: it is thought that roughly a million and a half were affected by this negative social phenomenon. In addition to that, the number of children who are subjected to commercial sex trade is estimated to be around two million people. One would make no mistake that the actual number of victims may be even more, since the recorded data reflects only those cases which were discovered by the law enforcing agencies.

All this brings to the question how many other people are impacted by the problem. There is no doubt that the phenomenon of sex trade should not be analyzed in one dimension only. It is true that the number of people are being sold and purchased is tremendous, nevertheless, one should keep in mind that the there are other parties involved. For example, one would make no mistake that the population of pimps should also be taken into account. It may be difficult to calculate it. however, it is understandable that for every 5 or 10 girls there is surely a pimp. In addition to that, the clients or the people who use the poor children should also be mentioned.
