They are teaching ethics for CS students in Finland, at least. Or are you talking about mandatory ethics classes?Should ethics around using computers be taught along with Computer Science.
I can't come up with such a mismatch -- can you provide an example? Anyway, "hiding information within the company" is rarely the best way to succeed in the long term, I think.What are the dangers if it isn't.. Wouldn't there be a mismatch between aligning Business ethics and Computer ethics ?

...make a personal study investigating the interaction Science Technology and Society (STS). The goal of the project is to investigate an STS theme picked by the student or a group of students. The student must
exhibit an understanding of the main factors that determine social benefit from technologies by end-users. He is supposed to identify a problematic situation as to the interaction between Science, Technology and Society, and to provide an answer in a 20-30 pages report using the adequate methods and tools for investigation.
A business-oriented option is also available � its goal is to write a strategic plan and a business plan for a new enterprise (using the concepts taught in the courses STS I to III). This project is run by groups of 2-3 people.
For the students interested in multi-disciplinary collaboration and business issues, this option can be tied to a "business" project done by an HEC student.

You're the only person I have ever seen argue this point of view. I don't know anyone else who feels that CS people must promote machines over man, or that business people must promote man over machines.
