Abstract

A lot of changing and development in information technology are rising in the world. New technologies are very effective tools in helping individuals and organization. However, the power of these technologies such as computers and Internet can be used for bad as well as for good. Software developers make decisions about when a product is safe and free of errors and thus ready to be released. People make decisions about access to and use of private information. People make decision either to buy an original copy or just a copied version of a book or a CD. These decisions have to be fair and honest. The main aim of this research is to conduct a survey to study some ethical issues related to actions and decisions of students at King Khalid University in Saudi Arabia.
