On Tuesday, 19 May 2026, at 14:30-15:30 CEST (12:30-13:30 UTC), EU DisinfoLab hosts a webinar ‘Ethics in the fight against disinformation: from theory to practice‘. Efforts to counter disinformation often involve difficult ethical trade-offs. Measures such as content moderation, fact-checking, and the use of OSINT can help address harmful manipulation, but they also raise questions around transparency, proportionality, accountability, and unintended consequences. As new investigative methods emerge and concepts such as transparency are increasingly instrumentalised by authoritarian actors, these dilemmas become even more urgent.

livestreamToday, Thursday June 28 2018 at 7pm EDT (23:00 UTC) the Ethical Tech Meetup presents Ethics in Infrastructure: Building the Internet We Want at Thoughtworks NYC. Can renegade tech save our digital future? Would adopting the principles of decentralization end up hardening our Internet bubbles into fragmented physical infrastructure and competing reality regimes? And what would that world look like for equity in general if other stratifications continue to harden — income inequality, political polarization, predatory automation, climate injustice? Speakers: Ingrid Burrington, writer (@lifewinning); Grayson Earle, media artist (@graysonearle); Dhruv Mehrotra, artist/researcher (@DhruvMehrotra); Darshana Narayanan, neuroscientist (@dznarayanan); Houman Saberi, network builder (@rise_nyc), Moderator: Greta Byrum, Digital Equity Lab (@gretabyrum) . The event will be webcast live on the Internet Society Livestream Channel.

VIDEO: Separating Rights from Wrongs: The #Ethics of Enforcement @theCSUSA #copyright

On September 24 2014 the Copyright Society of the USA’s New York Chapter presented a luncheon panel – If I Ran The Zoo: Probing The Contours Of “The Next Great Copyright Act” – at the Princeton Club in NYC. Katie Lachter, partner at Hinshaw & Culbertson LLP, ran through the ethical issues that arise when a lawyer is enforcing IP rights for a client, receiving a cease-and-desist letter in a client matter, and when she or he is aware that a client may be infringing a third party’s copyright. The program also touched on how social media plays a role in attorney conduct when representing copyright owners and users for enforcement matters. Also mentioned was abusive domain litigation.
