Lead section:

The article, "Ethics of technology " has a solid introductory. that gives readers a clear idea of what the article will focus on. The article focuses on some major sections regarding Ethics and also provide a good quality of sub-points, just missing key citations to follow where these sources are coming from and who stated them. The lead does not include information that is not present in the article pertaining its subject matter, like how does technology possess an ethical dilemma on producers and consumers alike, examples of in what way is technology giving people more power to act, data proving fake news and leaks about the downside of social media's behavior that is allowed and giving too much power. Overall needs to show more sources/evidence to back up all of these statements.

Content:

The article despite needing more data analysis has great content. It is relevant to the course topic because it cover the technology and culture, in the way people in society interact through different form's of telecommunication and communication through technology as a whole. Challenging ethical codes of what is morally right or wrong. Although strong points, once again there is information missing that can be added to back up pointers that the article focuses on. The article does focuses on historical topics but is underrepresented, and that is where I will look to enhance some of its holes.

Tone and Balance:

The article presents facts that are fair and doesn't appear to favor any particular side. For example, a left/right wing, liberal/conservative point of view, it strictly focuses on the topic's subject matter and what the publisher wants to highlight. The article does have many points but has stated previously has points that are underrepresented which i will take on. minorities are not describes as such but can be exploited for examples to back up the evidence of the claims, and that to me is a key part of why I chose this article. To point out the examples with cited sources showing that. The article may or may not persuade to readers to any particular position, depending on your personal beliefs prior to reading the article.

Sources and Reference:

No, the article does not give secondary source information for the details being provided throughout the article. The sources that is provided is thorough but not enough to back up the author's points. More references can help support and that is where I will explore. The sources that are provided are not current as of today due to inactivity of the article but will be enhanced once worked on. Historical events and examples will help support the argument the author is claiming. The article does have a few authors as examples of historical points but is still missing more to certain claims mentioned. There are more sites sources that should be included for this article to flow and transition thoroughly.

Organization and writing quality:

This intrigued article is well written and is sensible. It is clear and easy to read. The issue the article has is my main argument which is that it lacks information and source that is underrepresented to help the structure the article. Enhancing more data, knowledge and examples to back up the main points or topic will help lift this article.

Images and Media:

This article does not have enough images to give a good narration. Just only one image in the article, which does provide source that is copy right, through creative commons.

Overall Impression:

As of right now the article's standing is inactive. It has not been worked on for a long time and according to Wikipedia, it remains largely unverified because it lacks sufficient corresponding that I will tackle. The article has a lot of information that has great details but lack examples and sources. Overall, this article is developed but has potential to be a great article with some added tweaks.

(Ethics of technology)

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
(Briefly explain why you chose it, why it matters, and what your preliminary impression of it was.)

I chose this article because it is an interesting read that relates to my daily personal experiences with family members from a country. How the development of tool (device) came about and has changed the landscape overtime of how quick information transfers whether approved or not, and morally right or wrong. The normative ethics of what is considered in and out of bounce through the form of technology and communication.

The article has a good structure to it and general references but is missing key elements in citation, inline citation to be exact. for example, and I quote "This is said about this but doesn't say who said so, and this was said about that, but doesn't show where that came from." the article lacks cited resources to support the author perspective, and need to be updated with more precise citation.
