Question

Ethical dilemmas often come with a country's advancements in technology. Why do you think this is so? Include one of the more prominent dilemmas of the 20th century in your answer.

Answer 1

I think it's because of the influence that technology can give to conditioning people's minds such as social media information. Critical analysis has been gone with a single share, a person can already be judged. People sometimes can have sensationalized reactions on pictures that haven't been confirmed, or shares that aren't credible.

Answer 2

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Ethical dilemmas often come with a country's advancements in technology. One of the most prominent dilemmas of the 20th century is the possibility of science to clone human beings.

Many scientific laboratories in different parts of the world such as Russia have made experiments to clone animals with relative success. This made many big pharma companies and big multinational business, seriously considering the idea of experimenting with human cells. This is a major ethical dilemma because, at that moment, humans would start playing the role of God.
