I think Immanuel Kant’s Categorical Imperatives is predominant in the computing world. As Kant‘s philosophy goes,

Nothing in the world – indeed nothing even beyond the world – can possibly be conceived which could be called good without qualification except in good will.

I think in the computing world there are ethical norms and laws that computer users are to recognize. We, as computer users and rational beings are able to discern and decide whether to obey these laws or norms. The will and the reason that make us obey these norms is the one that is good.
