Ethical guideline

Ethical guidelines collect general or specific principles specifying how a technology or field should develop. Many individuals or organizations may act together to produce such guidelines, aiming to agree on the responsible directions for the future. Compliance with the guidelines is not usually considered in the guidelines themselves, reaching an agreement being a goal in itself.
