@whatusersdo @moingshaikh Start by outlining a few ethical parameters, such as Harm / Fairness / Autonomy. Show how the solution > #uxchat

@whatusersdo @moingshaikh I am happy the word "potential" is in the question because this helps you consider the greyscale. #uxchat >

@whatusersdo @moingshaikh To bring this up with a client it is good to first communicate that you have an ethical framework. > #uxchat

@EChesters Yes, there is rarely a glaringly "right" answer. We can only ensure to make the effort. Just as we do risk analyses. #uxchat
↪ Replying to @EChesters
@EChesters I agree. Ethical decisions are personal. Companies can also set up ethical frameworks to ensure ethics consideration. #uxchat

@EChesters @timi_olotu The scary thing about cognitive dissonance is that it's often subconscious. Few stop to listen to themselves. #uxchat
↪ Replying to @EChesters
@EChesters @timi_olotu Yes. Ethics is very related to empathy/compassion. Which is why I think UX:ers are suited to take the lead . #uxchat

@CrossroadsUX @EChesters @steveportigal @sara_ann_marie I interrupt this chat for a message: we are interviewing Steve on Mon about this ;)
The interesting thing about the line of ethics is that very few ethical questions are yes/no. They are more like: better/worse. #uxchat

@EChesters @nad_aleksieva @paulrandall Ouch!! #uxchat

@timi_olotu Yes. Also a huge risk of cognitive dissonance if I do not feel comfortable with what I do. Can lead to burnout. #uxchat
↪ Replying to @paulrandall
@paulrandall @timi_olotu Agreed. We need to raise the issue and have people dedicated to addressing these challenges. #uxchat
↪ Replying to @EChesters
@EChesters @nad_aleksieva @paulrandall Yes, ethics is only a concept. The way we can handle this is by being transparent. #uxchat >
@EChesters @nad_aleksieva @paulrandall > Whatever ethical framework we use for decision-making needs to public for accountability.

@timi_olotu Now we're talking. If I am a designer doing the work, what responsibility should I feel to counter "wrong" decisions. #uxchat

@OJQD @EChesters Yes, with what we know about how social media can trigger the same addictiveness as gambling, we need that debate. #uxchat

@EChesters @nad_aleksieva @paulrandall This is extremely interesting. A forum applied design to reduce racial comments. #uxchat
@EChesters @nad_aleksieva @paulrandall This is the one: fusion.net/story/340171/h…
@EChesters @nad_aleksieva @paulrandall Hence, the answer is that design can contribute to promoting ethical behavior among users. #uxchat
Many agree that we should feel responsibility, and many UX:ers do. Should it then also be possible to hold designers accountable? #uxchat
↪ Replying to @ojmqd
@OJQD Right, if a) the intent and b) the action ["the bone"] leads to c) reaction ["busy dog"] and d) outcome is satisfaction. #uxchat
