There is no code of ethics mentioned in the registration form.
Which system of ethics would you have me adopt?
Those of the APA:

those of Islam:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jyllands-Posten_Muhammad_cartoons_controversy
those of Catholicism I don't know if we have any of the works listed
in the Index Librorum Prohibitorum on wikisource but...
I've already delt with the Wicca do no harm approach so what is it to be?
In a situation where a universally agreed system of ethics is likely
to be impossible we must to an extent fall back on other more
pragmatic approaches. The law is one. Preventing inaccuracy is
another.
