Hello,

Here are the instructions for this case study:

As organizations increasingly collect massive amounts of customer data, there are several ethical scenarios that have been reported and potential laws that may come into play. Research a recent unethical scenario, such as the crowdturfing campaigns described in the article, Unethical But Not Illegal: Uncovering the Persuasive Messages Leveraged by Providers of the “Real” Online Social Impressions (ECIS). (Links to an external site.) Write a 2-3 page analysis of this case study and describe your opinion of the ethical behavior within the case. Would any state security breach notification laws and international privacy laws need to be considered?
