1. My personal reaction to this video was that of total awe and admiration for Jeff Bozos, for being the visionary that he is. (Let us forget about those drones at the end. What is happening in the present is more relevant to us.) Here, I have to say that the automation system shown felt awesome to me. If you break it up, it becomes somewhat simple. Some people may say that conveyors, vacuum pads, intelligent software; these things are common today everywhere. However, what enthralled me was the genius of the person who saw the overall picture and ...

Introduction

Drones refer to the remote-controlled aircrafts used in carrying missiles or bombs in order to attack the terrorists and facilitate the security of the U.S. The drones are used by the U.S to kill the terror suspects in Pakistan and the Middle East countries like Yemen, Afghanistan and Somalia. The use of drones started after the 11th September 2001 attack on the World Trade Centre in the U.S. The U.S claims the use of drones while, on the other hand, some proponents argues that the use of drones makes the situation very dangerous.

The captain in the middle of the war is in a moral dilemma. He is considering following orders and dropping a bomb into the enemies’ town where the enemies are hiding, or just approaching the town with a troop of soldiers. The captain has a decision to make revolving around his conscience. How sure is the captain about whereabouts of the enemies? Is he using the weapon he has rightfully? Who are the occupants of the town? These are issues of consideration in the justified ethic and war.
The concept of reciprocity and ethical justification defines the very idea of ethics; there ...

Introduction

I believe that people should have a positive view about technology. The standard beliefs of the society are that drones are used to carry out terrorism acts (Quintero 1). Additionally, many maintain a totally negative attitude towards emerging technologies claiming they interfere with normal human life and go against God’s teaching. The innovation of drones presents new and ethical issues that brought a lot of controversies from different leaders in religion, politics, and research. The complex nature of this issue requires a quick intervention in order to make the public understand the benefits of this technology in terms of maintaining security, conducting ...

Drones or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are often synonymous to the remote controlled jet-like machines currently used by the military to conduct reconnaissance and stealth operations in major conflicts around the globe. Millions of dollars have been spent to produce these state-of-the-art machines in order to improve military operations in uncharted terrain. In recent years, manufacturers have managed to replicate the technology used by these million dollar machines and miniaturize them for commercial use. Many consumers use these drones for leisure or photography, but there are also groups using these drones for questionable activities like stalking, spying and even ...

Technology is about invention and reinventing the invention. The technological developments that happened in the early 19th century laid the foundation for the devices that came later, and most of the new technologies were developed in the western world. The western people believe that their lives are enhanced by technology. Technology can be considered successful only if it meets the services that it is designed for. One big problem with new technology is to foresee the impact before it is used extensively or else the result would be a failure (Harrington, 55), and one such new technology that may fail ...

On TV, in press, on the radio, and the good, wonderful world wide web,

You hear it mentioned, in good and in bad,
A thought visits your mind,
If they did not visit Pakistani, it must be Iran, or whatever,
‘Oh not again!’ you cringe.
The drones, are they the lethally stinging mother-bees?
You tell me.
Aren’t we, humankind really smart?
So smart that we can fly, pilotless, wingless, to yonder land?
And visit our friends, and foes alike?
And drop them a lethal gift?
Snoop into their privates?
All thanks to the drones, they that spare only their kind?
Boom! ...

Technology may have transformed human life and made it more bearable but its application is not without overt and divisive controversy. The ongoing debate on drones is a typical example of the polarizing nature of some technological developments. While law enforcement officers appreciate and advocate the use of drones in fighting crime because they regard this technology as being efficient and effective, many civilians are vehemently opposed to drones because this novel tool is perceived to infringe on privacy rights.
In order to appreciate the support or dissent that defines this controversial technology, it is crucial that one understands ...

The American government has had to implement strategic measures in efforts to counter terrorism. Indeed, after the 9/11 attacks, America has been on the offensive with the strategy premised on prevention. However, while every effort to defend the territorial integrity and sovereign of America is welcomed, it is essential that such processes adhere to the law. In that strain, it is partially regrettable that America has resorted to using drones against its own citizens. Indeed, the confession by the Attorney General that since 2009, four citizens have succumbed to drone attacks comes as a wakeup call to the observation of ...

Drone policy refers to the interventionist measures that are mostly used by US government to counter terrorism. The predator drones are used for surveillance in the military hot points, in the countries which pose a national threat through the creation of groups that disregard human rights throughout the world. For example, in 2000, an unarmed predator drone conducting surveillance observed a figure suspected to be Osama Bin Laden walking around a property. In at least five countries-Pakistan, Afghanistan, Yemen, Iraq and Somalia, US drones patrol their skies and are occasionally used to launch lethal strikes to the suspected terrorists. The drones are ...

The use of drones in warfare has become increasingly questionable in its morality. Though using drones exhibit a way to minimize casualties, the very act of indiscriminate destruction caused by these drones have been criticized. Drones have allowed for the killing of people at a more discreet and maneuverable manner. The very people who have piloted these drones appear to be the ones most traumatized by these acts. These pilots show signs of PTSD caused by their murder of innocent people who are casualties caused by collateral damage.
The problem with drones or with any other kinds of air ...

Warfare Technology and the Human Experience

Advanced technologies alter the human experience in warfare. Improved technology is supposed to make the war effort more precise and make the experience obsolete. This is however not the the case. Changes in technology have historically shown how dangerous wars can be and how difficult the human experience can be. The nuclear bomb was supposed to end all great power wars. The bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki to end World War II proved that not all technologies were good for humankind. In the 21st century fight against terrorism, it has become more difficult to identify the enemy and hence ...

Most pilots have expressed their fear on the increased unmanned aircraft in the air. Not only the pilots have expressed their fears but also passengers. According to On Point radio, there are some people who will ...

As with any significant new technology, drones have changed the human experience. Nevertheless, it is important to also take into account the ethical aspects that these modifications may have on humanity. In this sense, one of the greatest factors would be the invasion of privacy, which drones allow in a more discreet manner. Furthermore, they may also be used for wars, helping combat enemy troops from far away, without having to sacrifice one’s own men. As expected, this would lead different ethical theories to have various positions on the subject, especially deontology and utilitarianism. As a whole, paradoxically ...

Introduction

This essay discusses the future of robots. But what exactly do we mean by “robot”? The Oxford dictionaries’ primary definition of a robot is “a machine capable of carrying out a complex series of actions automatically, especially one programmable by a computer.” (The dictionary claims the origin of robot to be from the Czech robota, meaning forced labor).
However, to many, a robot is envisaged as a machine in more or less human shape, having the human-like capabilities of intelligence, of speech, and movement. An example could be the gold-colored figure of C3-PO in the Star Wars movies. In reality, robots come in ...

The United States government has been faced with undeniable allegations of spying on its citizens in the recent past. The fear of terrorism has prompted our overenthusiastic government to employ tactics that continue to contradict with human rights globally, as well as the fourth amendment. However, the most alarming fact of this surveillance activity is that the spying efforts are not only directed towards suspected criminals and terrorists, but also everyone else. With every step that the government takes to generate more information regarding innocent citizens, so does our faith in it continue to diminish. This paper will examine ...

Primarily we must know what we mean by unmanned vehicles, unmanned vehicles refer to all mechanic organisms capable of movement without direct human control.

Introduction The term ‘privacy’ refers to an individual’s ability to seclude themselves thereby expressing themselves selectively. It, therefore, means that something is sensitive or simply special to a person. Privacy also limits who accesses the places, things or body of another person, hence making it about an individual’s control and security to things like their bank details and medical records. Privacy is thus important to human dignity in all societies as it is a human right of every individual. However, technology is turning out to be a threat to privacy due to its integration to human lives ...
