Abstract
Modern information technology is a technique thanks to which the life of many people has become much easier and easier. Probably one of the most popular types of information technology is the Internet, which is in crazy demand. Many people believe that a person who has once become acquainted with the Internet will not be able to get rid of its addiction. And this is actually the case. You can find a lot of useful information on the Internet without spending a lot of time on it. After all, before it was necessary to go to the library, look for a book, which was not always there. And today it is enough to turn on a computer or laptop connected to the Internet and ask the search engine the question you are interested in.

It seems that human responsibility for consequences and developments in comprehensively interconnected and complex information systems can neither ethically nor legally be borne by an individual person any longer nor by a rather vague and almost unlimited set of agents whether individual or group-sized
Summary
The traditional, rather sharp separation between and by disciplines is not anymore to be upheld, if not just for operative, methodological or methodical reasons. This certainly leads to respective challenges on the side of scientific methodologists on the one hand, and of social scientists, social philosophers, and moral philosophers on the other. We all know the problems resulting from the handling of documentation systems, the retrievability of data, the almost unlimited possibility of combining data with respect to data protection problems, respective legislations etc. Some even fear that we are on the brink of or already living in a “computerocracy” – being the fate and development of mass societies which
