Caveat emptor: A new form of participatory mapping and its ethical implication on PGIS

Research output: Contribution to conferencePaperpeer-review

Abstract

A user-generated online mapping website named Caveat Emptor (a.k.a. Oshimaland) was instantiated to investigate the necessity of a geographic information ethics 2.0. By incorporating Suler’s (2004) concept of online disinhibition effects, the author clarified that people can utilise new technologies both in good ways and bad, from behind the safety of a mask. Despite the omnoptic mutual surveillance environment, the associated participants in actual scenes of cyberspace are not always restrained.
