Question

Shelli manages a small boutique in Israel. Her intern just approached her with a new design for her Web site. Shelli likes the design, and tells the intern that he is quite the artist. The intern confides that he found the design on the Internet. Shelli replies that they can’t use it. Her decision reflects which ethical issue related to IT? A. Privacy B. Accuracy C. Accountability D. Property (such as intellectual property) E. Accessibility to information

Answer 1

Answer:D. Property

Explanation:

The intellectual property is known as the non-material assets of a company that involves knowledge and company identity; it may include image, know-how, brands, patents, company name, etc. When Shelli rejects to use a design found on the internet, she respects the intellectual property of another company and protect her small boutique from a possible legal infringement.
