Abstract
Today's growing and intimate relationship between people and technology has generated an increasingly in-depth discussion of the problems correlated to the design methods of technological innovations. This implicitly confers an important social and ethical role to the software houses, which contribute to the creation of products that can influence the behavior of the users to the point of manipulating it. However, this same persuasive power also represents a powerful means to catalyze positive behaviors. With this in mind, the “ethical design” movement was born, aimed at promoting digital well-being and revising the methods of technology implementation in a human-centric fashion.
