This report analyzes the Edward Snowden case, focusing on the ethical issues surrounding the NSA's data collection and Snowden's leak of classified information. Using the 'doing ethics' technique and the Australian Computer Society (ACS) code of ethics, the report examines the situation, facts, issues, affected parties, and ethical implications. The analysis considers utilitarianism, deontology, and contractarianism theories, alongside virtues. The report concludes that, while Snowden's actions were in the public interest, the situation could have been handled more professionally, and it offers recommendations including government authority for whistleblowers, removing charges against Snowden, and establishing an ethics committee. The report also evaluates the case based on the ACS Code of Ethics, particularly the primacy of public interest and the enhancement of quality of life. The report provides a comprehensive overview of the ethical dilemmas and their implications, offering insights into professional responsibilities and the balance between public interest and national security.
