Focusing on the intersection of gender and technology, the book analyzes computer ethics issues such as hacking, privacy, and cyberstalking through a feminist lens. It argues that understanding these problems requires recognizing their gendered dimensions. By applying feminist ethics and legal theory, the author reveals how traditional responses often perpetuate the public/private divide, which has historically contributed to women's oppression. This groundbreaking approach highlights the need for a feminist perspective in addressing contemporary digital dilemmas.
