of action as this minus the suffering of one who is involved in the action. The utilitarianism is
the version of consequentialism is one which defines the consequences of the action which is
standard of wrong and right (Mulgan, 2014). There are many forms of consequentialism
which are altruism and egoism means the interest of being equal. The Utilitarianism
proponents disagree on the number of points like whether the action has been chosen is based
on results or agents must confirm the rules for maximizing the utility. The theory has been
found in hedonists Epicurus and Aristippus which view the happiness, the tradition of this
began with Bentham and included John Stuart Mill, R.M. Hare, and Peter Singer.
In the case study, the theory of utilitarianism is used as this has been noted by researchers that
people gone through a breakup to update their status and post on social media sites, especially

The advertisement shown by brands encourages the clients for gaining the new experiences
such as the offers provided by brands and coupon such as travel and discount coupons are
best for helping the people at a hard time.

3. Deontology Theory
The deontology theory is a normative theory which the morality of action must be based on
the action which is right or wrong under the rules instead which is based on consequences of
action. This theory is most of the time described as an obligation which is based on ethics as
rules bind the individual with their duty. The ethics of deontological is contrasted to
consequentialism, pragmatic ethics and virtue ethics. The actions are more important than of
consequences in deontology theory (Tenenbaum, 2017). The theory of deontology is first
used for describing the current and particular definition given by C.D. Broad in his book, the
five types of ethical theory which was published in the year 1930. The system of
deontological ethics is the moral obligation which can arise from the internal and external
sources such as a set of rules which is inherent from the universe, is the set of cultural values
or religious laws.
According to the case study, the theory is related as people post their feelings on Facebook
whose advantage is taken by the Facebook to encourage their business. The people gone
through breakup must know the circumstances of posting the update of their life on social
media. People must know what is wrong and what is right, should these need to be posted on
social media. The ethics of Facebook are not wrong as they are helping the individual to
come out from a hard time of their life.

This theory elaborates about the nature, definition of virtue and some more problems which is
related to virtue. The virtue is the character trait such as settled sentiment and habitual action
which specifics that virtue is a positive trait which makes the possessor the good human
being (Bell, et. al., 2017). The virtue can be honesty which is not only a tendency of what to
do what is honest, it is generally specified as a moral valuable trait of character. The virtue is
concerned with different actions such as emotions and emotional reactions, values, choices,
attitude, desires, expectations, perception and sensibilities. The virtue can be possessed by the

Facebook from the post of the individual (Austin, 2017). This has been noted that there are
many words which are used by men in their post before they admit themselves as single such
as detox, healing, suffering etc. The same words are used by women in their post is on the
same day as the announcement of a breakup. The behavior of women and men are different
from their breakup and about their feeling. But the same feelings are shown at different times
by both of them as women are very emotional and show their feelings at the same time.
Similar to women boys are also emotional but they feel the same when they had lost it totally.

5. Contract Theory
The contract theory is the research and analyses about how the organization and people
develop the legal agreements in the uncertain conditions which are unknown factors and
asymmetric information. This theory applies to both the multi-party negotiation among the
agents and principals and contracts which are created by the single organization and person
for specifying the details of the multi-party agreement such as contracts of the employee. The
theory of the contract specifies the requirement and responsibilities of both the parties so that
there can't be a single point of misunderstanding (Fried, 2015). There are many ideas which
can't be achieved as moral hazard is model in this theory, as the risk of one party to the
transactions which is not acting in good faith. This theory is mainly the application of game
theory which is the research of negotiation model in mathematics, corporation, and conflict
among organizations, individuals and governments. The questions of central in the theory of
contract involve why the individuals which make the decision and how that decision can be
made by the one which can affect others.
The moral hazard in contract includes the risk of disadvantage for the party with less
information. There are other models in contract theory which are the adverse selection in a
principal party which is not fully informed by the factors of agent's risk and signaling; in
which the agents reliably conveys the information about themselves to principles such as
qualification of job applicant which matches the requirements of hirer's list.
