ABSTRACT
In 2012, we published Ethical Decision-making and Internet Research, which consolidated the Association of Internet Researchers (AoIR) Ethics Working Committee’s recommendations into a comprehensive document. In 2015, we revisited the subject with Internet Research: Ethical Concerns, which took a practical approach to internet research ethics by reviewing the work of other researchers in the field. With the article you are reading now, we attempt to reconcile the abstract and the practice-based methods of our previous two articles by unpacking ethical decision-making in view of principles.
