Electronic business is based on using computers and networks in all aspects of business. This new business concept is developing its own culture, which faces many ethical dilemmas. Electronic business culture is understood as an overall subjective employee perception of the organisation through information management support, monitoring and surveillance, and right to privacy. Electronic business organisational ethics relates to guiding beliefs, standards, or ideals about whether certain acts are good or bad in the network based business. Since electronic business is a fairly new concept, it appears that national electronic business cultures are not developed. Therefore, the code of ethics established at the global level and existence of the ShopGuide.com's search directory point to a possible way of solving e-business ethical dilemmas.
