Computer Ethics Revisited

Have you changed your opinion about whether Computer Science majors should be required to take a course covering Computer Ethics?  State your previous position (and  explain why you felt that way), and if you new position is different, state your new position (and explain why you have modified your position).

If you believe that it is important to teach ethics to Computer Science majors, do you think the present way of doing it is the best (that is, COMP 450 and the way that it is taught)?  If not, what changes would you recommend?
