The field is also broad because it examines ethical questions in many categories, including the use of artificial intelligence, the philosophy of information, ethics in mass media, privacy and anonymity, and access to information. Because many parts of information ethics deal with technology, the field is constantly changing and evolving. Information ethics is also broad because it concerns people all over the world, and the influence of various cultures and perspectives is essential for a better understanding of the subject.
