Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Deontologists focus on the duties and moral obligations of individuals, rather than just the consequences of their actions. They believe that certain actions are inherently right or wrong, regardless of the outcome or consequences. This emphasis on duty and obligation often involves a respect for individual rights and treating others with dignity, rather than simply focusing on the outcomes or benefits of a decision, which is the focus of utilitarianism and consequentialism. Hacking is not related to moral theories or ethics.
