Comparing the Two Ethical Systems:

You are the regional manager of the Kent, Ohio office of a large corporation with its principal office in New York City. You receive a phone call from an executive in New York informing you they suspect an employee in your office is using the company$$s e$-$mail system for personal business and to spread damaging rumors about the company and its executives.

The executive orders you to find the offender and fire them. You must decide whether or not it is ethical to secretly monitor all of your employees$$ use of the e$-$mail system to identify the culprit.
