Abstract: The first part of the text outlines the nature and specifics of the digital economy, presenting basic and related concepts and terms by which it is explored worldwide.

The third part outlines typical ethical issues; systematizes basic ethical values and principles that can reliably be used as criteria for assessing the ethical correctness in the digital environment; points 20 current questions raised by ethical analysis. The conclusion is a brief summary and conclusions of reasoning.
