to seek to peace of mind and that is what the network administrator wants
to do.
d. Utilitarianism- this theory suggests that ethical actions are those that provide
the greatest balance of good (pleasure) over evil (pain) for the most number of
people.
The admin couldn’t just turn a blind eye for what he had discovered but
now his decision might affect his family so he needs to make a decision
that will bring pleasure for a great number of people rather than one.
e. Justice and Fairness- justice means giving each person what he or she
deserves, or what his or her due.
In this case in order for justice to be given, the admin’s friend should
know the truth for him to decide what to do and so that the admin will
have peace of mind.
relationship of his friend and giving advice that could reveal the truth without
really saying the mistake of the other one to avoid hurting the other party and
losing his job but the probability to reveal that his friend’s wife is having an
affair could be excluded and not achieve since his friend wife might form
some sort of reasoning of continue to live with her husband and having an
affair.
Alternative no. 2 falls under the principle of utilitarianism where when the
admin hires a private investigator to follow his friend’s wife and gather
evidence that she’s having an affair he could send the evidence anonymously
without being traced, using the email and without losing his job. The admin
would be able to reveal the truth so that his friend will know about it and he
will lose the feeling of guilt.
Alternative no. 2
He would be able to maintain his job for his family and help his friend to find
out that its wife was having an affair without being linked as the one who
gives the tip about it.
It could hurt his friend and brought his friend into a great shock.
Alternative no. 3
He would be able to maintain his job for his family.
It could not lead to the revelation of truth and his friend would only reject the
taught that he needs to separate with his wife. The chance that his friend
would be fooled for a long time is too high.
In this case in order to reveal the truth there would be no easy and painless solution.
The best solutions is for the network administrator to talk with his friend so that he
would be able to know how his friend was, and he could also know about the state of
his friend’s relationship between its wife. Then the admin will proceed to his plan to
hire a private investigator to gather evidence and make sure that he was with his
friend when that anonymous person send the evidence so that he would be able to
give his friend an advice about how he would deal about that situation so that his
friend could avoid causing harm between the two of them.
With this solution the admin could maintain his job for his family and he will be able
to help his friend. Though it might hurt his friend a lot but it will able his friend to be
free from a wrong marriage, the admin just need to be with his friend and give all the
advices and help that he could in order for his friend to move on and go forward after
the revelation.
