ACM code of ethics and professional conduct
Open accessAbstract
ACM Releases Draft Revision of Ethics Code.ACM's present Code of Professional Conduct was developed in 1972, predating technological developments such as widespread data networks and "computer viruses" With funding from the SIG Discretionary Fund, ACM's Special Interest Group on Computers and Society (SIGCAS) sponsored an Ethics Task Force to revise the ACM Code.The proposed draft ACM Code of Ethics published in this issue was developed by the Task Force and has been reviewed by ACM Council.All ACM members are invited to comment on this draft.Suggestions to express the code in less USA-eentrie terms are especially welcome, since the issues are equally important for all ACM members.Based on feedback from the membership, a final draft of the code will be developed and presented to ACM Council for approval.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
