First, one of the main ethical issues that arise when storing information on a technological device is that there is always going to be a potential risk of a data leak. In this day and age everything is being stored on computers and fraudsters everyday are coming up with different and unique ways to steal information from mainly large corporations. So, by storing everything electronically, businesses and individuals are constantly faced with that probability. Next, another issue associated with storing PII is that if in the case a company or organization does experience a data breach, this may cause their customers to lose trust in the company, even though it isn’t the company’s fault. This will cause the company to lose customers which would lead to loss of money because they’re not bringing in as much clientele. Some may even take it a step further and potentially file lawsuits against the company if they feel that the breach could have been prevented. Another ethical issue that comes along with storing information about individuals is that it is possible to experience data loss. Users can experience loss of data by not updating their computer on a regular basis or not backing up information. Or even just basic human errors like breaking the computer or a spill can result in the loss of pertinent information. Lastly, another issue that arises when storing data on a computer, especially for a business, is inaccurate data. Now, this could just be simple human error, out of date systems, or an informal process of collecting data. We also see this a lot when transferring data, whether that is manually or electronically, there’s bound to be errors. This causes confusion on both the business and consumer’s side. So, there should be better processes set in place to ensure that bad data is not being submitted.
