| Abstract: | Many ethical concerns, especially with regards to privacy, are raised by the growing application of data mining to boost corporate profits. Nowadays the volume and type of personal information accessible to corporations is greater than before. This causes many consumers to be greatly concerned about potential violations of their privacy by current data collection and data mining practices and techniques. This study identifies the ethical issues associated with data mining and the potential risks to a corporation that is believed to be operating in an unethical manner. |
