Annotation | A briefing paper from VIA (Values Into Action), "Tagging: a technology for care services?" raises a range of ethical and legal issues associated with the use of electronic tagging as a form of control in caring environments. The arguments for and against are discussed. The motives for use, rather than the technology itself, should be considered. (RH). |
