"Communication ethics" is based on the context of how a person conveys their morals and values through communications such as in language, media, relationships, and etcetera. Communication ethics is a crucial aspect of today's society that aims to retain civility and personal responsibility when communicating one's views as well as evaluating information through a filter. The main objectives of this article are to give an overview of communication ethics as well as to elaborate on its history, contributing philosophers, ten basic principles, and universal codes. The article makes use of an example to convey the meaning of communication ethics such as how the transparency of a business will strengthen the trust between them and their affiliates, and how a lack of said transparency could have the opposite effect; a counterexample notes how censorship in such a circumstance may be necessary in regard to achieving a beneficial outcome for said business. Communication ethics may vary, but the concept is primarily founded upon respect and receptivity.Nicole Willard-Moore (talk) 04:25, 5 March 2021 (UTC)

Online communication

As today’s society adapts to the prevalence of the Internet for its plethora of online outlets, resources, and knowledge, it has also come to develop and reshape the expanse of communication and the utilization of ethics thereof. Social media platforms, namely, allow for both casual communication as well as formal communication throughout their respective services, both of which can apply similar ethics as to what is practiced in other settings such as in-person communication. Informal or casual communication, for example, can refer to the way in which an individual chooses to voice themselves on social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and more, whereas platforms such as Zoom can serve both formal and informal purposes such as in seeing friends or attending a meeting by utilizing both audio and camera tools. The Internet, in regard to the application of these programs, supplies individuals with communicative tools and an expansive reach that allows users to interact with one another efficiently through various services.

The expeditious nature and efficiency of the Internet and its availability of resources provides users with the ability to share and consume information in adaptable ways- whether said information is ethically communicated or possibly corrupted is relative to the provider of said information as well as how the observer perceives it. As alluded to in the introductory paragraph of this article, deceptive occurrences such as “fake news” is an ever-growing, present concern due to the rapidity of media sharing in today’s society and, as a result, the broad, extended access to the Internet by any user. Free speech is another prominent argument brought up in regard to ethical communication, analyzing and counter-analyzing what is appropriate and what is not appropriate under particular circumstances, or arguing that what is deemed “appropriate” should not be supervised in the first place. As a result of the topic's inconsistent and debatable nature, regulations attempt to maintain civility and limit discordance between users online to ensure privacy, protection, and proper use of a service, program, or platform. Regulations set by online platforms attempt to maintain control of ethical communication by filtering out and inspecting questionable or malicious content across various services. This act of security, in most cases, can be effectuated by the users as well, permitting a user to report activity such as a comment or account that they believe may be violating the rules of a program or service. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nicole Willard-Moore (talk • contribs) 03:01, 19 March 2021 (UTC)

Assignment 9
I had not received a peer review, so according to my own insights of my draft, I want to continue adding and better-clarifying the information I have compiled thus far. I still have to incorporate my sources into the draft efficiently as to help the information flow better and to solidify the points I am trying to display. I need to continue expanding my draft further as to create a sufficient amount of coherent information that I can continue to revise and reevaluate as I see fit as I continue to write and develop my contribution. When reaching a general completion, I will go back and assess any potential grammatical mistakes or incoherencies, as well as any potential organizational disconnects.
