Why do we need both soft (post-compliance) ethics and legal compliance in the digital transformation?
With the adoption of the GDPR and other legal frameworks very high standards have been introduced to ensure data privacy and security. However, just complying with the law does not seem to be sufficient to address all ethical challenges raised by the digital transformation. Soft ethics operates on the post-compliance level and allows us to consider questions of distributive justice and discrimination, the distinction of the private and public sphere, transparency, autonomy, legitimate expectations or trustworthiness.
