Summary

Appeals to human rights make an important but limited contribution to the ethics of communication. On reflection this is hardly surprising: communication is complex; the ethics of communication is unavoidably complex, and the ethics of digital communication unavoidably even more complex. Since human rights approaches to ethics appeal to very few abstractly formulated principles, it is important to ask how those principles may and must be qualified to take account of a wider range of important norms and standards.
