We are watching the movie “Minority Report”. There are a lot of ethical issues concerning technologies we can find in this movie. The biggest ethical issue with this movie is how pre-crime branch of government is prosecuting general public before they even commit any crime. These people that are arrested end up directly in some high-tech jail without any trial.
Another ethical issue I see is with how the pre-cogs are being treated. Pre-cogs are genetically created human clones and are kept in a controlled environment and they do not have normal interactions with other human beings. Neither do they have any social life like everybody else. To me it seems like they are treated like lab animals.
Pre-crime also seems to be hiding the facts about some errors it made in arresting innocent civilians just so that the people can think the system is working without any error and ultimately the founders make the big profit.
