Which statement accurately describes one of the primary ethical frameworks used to evaluate technology decisions?

### Why this is right - **A** is true: Social Contract Theory asks whether people agree to rules and whether those rules are fair. - **B** is true: rights analysis distinguishes positive entitlements from negative freedoms against interference. - **C** is true: Virtue Ethics focuses on the decision-maker's character. ### The concept Each framework directs attention to a different part of a decision. The social-contract lens tests the legitimacy of shared rules. The rights lens identifies what should be provided and what should not be obstructed. The virtue lens asks what conduct expresses good character. Considering all three can reveal conflicts that a single perspective might miss. ### The other options - **D. One framework always solves every technology ethics problem by itself.** The material explicitly says no single framework solves everything and recommends balancing the lenses. ### Terms - **Social Contract Theory**: A framework for assessing shared rules and reciprocal benefits. - **Positive right**: An entitlement to receive a service or resource. - **Negative right**: A freedom from interference. - **Virtue Ethics**: A framework focused on character and virtues. ### Remember Different ethical frameworks provide different insights; compare them rather than treating one as a universal answer.
