Abstract
The lack of established rules and regulations in cyberspace is attributed to
the absence of agreed-upon ethical principles, making it difficult to establish
accountability, regulations, and laws. Addressing this challenge requires
examining cyberspace from fundamental philosophical principles. This work
focuses on the ethics of using defensive deception in cyberspace, proposing a
doctrine of cyber effect that incorporates five ethical principles: goodwill,
deontology, no-harm, transparency, and fairness. To guide the design of
defensive cyber deception, we develop a reasoning framework, the game of
ethical duplicity, which is consistent with the doctrine. While originally
intended for cyber deception, this doctrine has broader applicability,
including for ethical issues such as AI accountability and controversies
related to YouTube recommendations. By establishing ethical principles, we can
promote greater accountability, regulation, and protection in the digital
realm.
