I would politely remind you that, per the note that Chris sent, this is not really the best discussion for this community.
I would also suggest that you may want to better understand permissible use of information in a corporate banking context before suggesting something is unethical. ------------------------------------------------ Tom Deutsch, MBA Global Industry Cognitive Solutions CTO and Transformation http://www.ibmbigdatahub.com/blog/author/tom-deutsch Twitter: @thomasdeutsch Data Management Blog: ibmdatamag.com/author/tdeutsch/ LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=833160 Co-author; Harness the Power of Big Data Understanding Big Data: Analytics for Enterprise Class Hadoop and Streaming Data Handbook of Human Computing Employer Advisory Board member at Harrisburg University of Science and Technology Advisory Board Member for Data Science at California State University, Fullerton.

It seems, it is a business requirement and we cannot question the customer on whether their need is valid or not (Or is it legal or ethical). I was wondering, (on a technical level!), can't we incorporate a change in Hadoop, whereby it allows the parent entity (in this case the corporate account) to only connect to the child entity (personal account) if there is a confirmation received from the customer~child entity (through email, sms, whatsapp, etc). I am sure this is not a one~off case and would be applicable everywhere (In most business needs where we are connecting different systems together and are bound to raise legal & moral questions) Hey Namaskara~Nalama~Guten Tag~Bonjour -- Keigu Deepak 73500 12833 www.simtree.net, [email protected] [email protected] LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/deicool Skype: thumsupdeicool Google talk: deicool Blog: http://loveandfearless.wordpress.com Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/deicool "Contribute to the world, environment and more : http://www.gridrepublic.org " On Wed, May 25, 2016 at 7:55 AM, Suvro Choudhury <[email protected] > wrote: IMHO, you should discuss this with your product owner /business customer since this relates to the requirement. This forum is for purely technical questions, although I agree as human being we need to be sensitive about these. You can also try posting to Quora and see what folks think. Cheers!

You are building a knife (Hadoop in this case) and you would know that you would kill someone by it. Would you build the knife at all (So it is about Hadoop also in some sense. But as pointed about by you, it is not a technical question. However it is about usage of Hadoop)?

This list is for questions on usage of Apache Hadoop. I don't see anything about Hadoop in your question. Even if the software in question involves Hadoop, it's not a question about usage. Unfortunately, I'm not aware of a more appropriate forum for this question, so I don't have a recommendation for where to take this. --Chris Nauroth From: Deepak Goel <[email protected]> Date: Monday, May 23, 2016 at 2:59 PM To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Subject: "Big Data" Problem Hey Namaskara~Nalama~Guten Tag~Bonjour (Sorry, as this might not be the right question for this forum. However am not sure which other forum would be able to address this problem) I work for a "Big Data" company and we are supposed to provide the technology to a bank which will link the corporate accounts and savings accounts of a customer. So if a bank has given a corporate loan to a company and the company does not dole out some payments from its savings account, then the bank should warn itself and take action against the company as there might be a probability that the company might default on its loan. Now we would be providing the technology however it is not completely ethical to link the corporate account to the savings account of the customer company. However the bank is saying, as it has all the data it can link it without any hassle. Even without informing customers. This problem is similar to the "Nuclear problem" where the physicist provided the nuclear technology to build nuclear bombs, but said that they just provided the technology. But it is for the politicians to decide whether or not to use nuclear bombs on civilians. And hence there is no moral obligation on the physicist. What do you think I should do? Is there a problem at all or am i just over imagining things? Should I provide the technology to the bank to link the two accounts?
