    1. Doxing. December 2023. Page Version ID: 1189390304. URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Doxing&oldid=1189390304 (visited on 2023-12-10)

      This Wikipedia article on doxing provides a helpful overview of the practice, including its methods and legal implications. However, it would benefit from a clearer explanation of the difference between public interest disclosures (like whistleblowing) and malicious doxing. Adding more diverse examples, such as how doxing impacts marginalized communities or public figures, could also make the article more comprehensive.

    1. 17.1. Individual harassment# Individual harassment (one individual harassing another individual) has always been part of human cultures, bur social media provides new methods of doing so. There are many methods by which through social media. This can be done privately through things like: Bullying: like sending mean messages through DMs Cyberstalking: Continually finding the account of someone, and creating new accounts to continue following them. Or possibly researching the person’s physical location. Hacking: Hacking into an account or device to discover secrets, or make threats. Tracking: An abuser might track the social media use of their partner or child to prevent them from making outside friends. They may even install spy software on their victim’s phone. Death threats / rape threats

      This section provides a strong start in identifying different forms of individual harassment on social media, but it could be clearer and more grammatically polished. The sentence “There are many methods by which through social media” seems incomplete and could be revised to something like “Social media offers many ways for individuals to harass others.” Also, grouping examples under categories (e.g., emotional abuse, surveillance, threats) might help organize the ideas more clearly. Finally, consider briefly addressing the psychological impact of these actions to emphasize their seriousness.

    1. 2.2.3. Ethics Frameworks

      One section that stuck with me was the discussion of American Indigenous ethics, particularly the idea of anti-hierarchy and valuing air, water, and plants as moral equals to humans. I was raised in a city where nature often felt like something "separate"—parks were for recreation, and rivers were something to build around, not with. But after volunteering in a reforestation project, I started to understand this other way of relating to the environment: as a community, not a resource. I’m now wondering how this principle could influence how we design information systems—could we, for instance, build environmental sensors or data visualizations that don’t just measure, but respect ecosystems? Can ethics be embedded not just in user interfaces, but in how technology treats the non-human world?

    2. I think it’s worth noting that Care Ethics has expanded beyond just gender critique. It’s now used in areas like healthcare, education, and AI ethics, especially in decisions that require empathy and understanding of individual needs. For example, in designing AI systems that serve vulnerable populations, Care Ethics offers a compelling alternative to rigid, fairness-focused algorithms by emphasizing trust, attentiveness, and real-world impact on users.
