00:00.000 --> 00:04.000
Ethical issues in programming and software development.

00:04.000 --> 00:09.000
In this video, we will understand common ethical issues.

00:09.000 --> 00:12.000
Impact of unethical programming.

00:12.000 --> 00:15.000
What are ethics in software?

00:15.000 --> 00:18.000
First, what are ethics?

00:18.000 --> 00:25.000
Think of them as the rules that tell us what's right or wrong when we build software.

00:25.000 --> 00:28.000
Here are common traps.

00:28.000 --> 00:31.000
Copying code without permission.

00:31.000 --> 00:34.000
Slipping in secret backdoors.

00:34.000 --> 00:37.000
Or abusing user data for profit.

00:37.000 --> 00:41.000
Unethical code can cost companies millions and ruin lives.

00:41.000 --> 00:46.000
Just one vulnerability can let attackers steal your personal info.

00:46.000 --> 00:48.000
Good practices and standards.

00:48.000 --> 00:54.000
Good practices include validating inputs and always crediting collaborators.

00:54.000 --> 01:00.000
Follow standards like ISO slash IEC 2910.

01:00.000 --> 01:07.000
Be upfront about any conflicts and maintain clear version history so everyone can audit your work.

01:07.000 --> 01:09.000
Core responsibility.

01:09.000 --> 01:15.000
You're responsible for trust, security, fairness and transparency.

01:15.000 --> 01:19.000
Ethical programming is an optional. It's essential.

01:19.000 --> 01:23.000
Ethics in code equals safer, fairer, more trustworthy software.
