What's the point of CyberEthics if not to denounce HCI majors as liars, shyster tricksters and the true instigators of the last world conflagration? There being no such denouncement, this book fails the test of necessity.

Apparently, somone recently got a HCC (Human-Centered Computing) PhD from GT involving "software to help people bake". This should have resulted in twenty lashes with electric wire at the time of thesis proposal and a penance of forty prayers to Dijkstra. Instead, this perfidious son-of-a-bitch was hooded. We need another Vietnam, not the CyberEthics of someone who's probably never even r00ted something and had the chance to put them into practice.

I bet this author plays Second Life.
