Interesting moral question from The Trog
Jan 27, 2009 Blogging's Best
The Trog asks a very interesting moral question about the use of technology as it affects a person’s reputation (of sorts).
In reading last week the story of how a Google bomb of George W. Bush has now been predictably and avoidably redirected to Barack Obama on the White House web site, I was faced with the puzzle of whether Google bombing the president, in general, is morally licit. Typical Google bombings ought to strike any one as a cross between mildly clever and slightly amusing.
As someone once said, “I guess it depends on what your definition of the word ‘is’ is.”
