To conclude your paper I want you to identify what factors needto be considered in determining whether it’s more ethical tosupport or is it more ethical to discourage moving forward withthese concepts or projects. Consider “the greater good”, “lesserharm”, proportionality, obligations and other ethical frameworksdiscussed in your readings to date.
