Computer Ethics: The Evolution of the Uniqueness Revolution

We examine, what has been considered a defining characteristic of computer ethics, namely the claim that it is unique and argue that there is a significant conceptual muddle about the statement, "Computer ethics is unique." This muddle has led to multiple inconsistent views of computer ethics and in fact this muddle has contributed to some claims which are counter productive for the discipline. In this paper we clarify the claim and show why these counter productive claims are mistaken.
