Abstract
The debatability of the problem of ethics of media communication of the academic community, in the framework of the implementation of the distance format of online learning, is beyond doubt. In the course of the study, the vast majority (95.7 %) of respondents agree with the need to comply with ethical standards when using a remote format of communication. When asked if there are differences in the ethics of online and offline communication, 59.6 % of respondents answered that communication in networks has its own characteristics, which distinguishes it from communication in the external, “textured” world, 29.7 % did not find any differences and 10.7 % could not unambiguously answer the question. Of particular interest are the problems of corporate ethics of network communities. Studies have shown that 8 (8.5 %) respondents do not exclude anonymous communication on the network and 65.9 % of respondents published information under an assumed name. Along with this, 65 (69.1 %) respondents are aware of the legal responsibility in the virtual space, which indicates the Internet literacy of active users. It is known that the ethics of communication involves respect for the rights of other people. The study showed that the majority — 84 respondents (89.4 %) were in favor of respecting copyright, but only 50 (53.2 %) support privacy. The extremely negative aspects of remote communication should not be overlooked. As the survey showed, 32 (34.0 %) respondents encountered obscene language and obscene content on the network, as well as insults and slander against themselves (in 15.9 % and 17.0% of cases, respectively). Thus, the information environment is increasingly turning into a complex of objectively acting factors that determine the moral and ethical development of the individual.
