Design Ethics
This is a note about ethics in design.
This needs to be considered in conjuction with ethics of technology, creativity, innovation, computing, AI, bioethics, ethics of opression/liberation, animal ethics, environmental, ecological geoethics, etc. Otherwise, the literature appears to be small and narrow.
