As people, undeniably, have morals, it makes sense that a standard could be set for computer usage. To my knowledge, there is currently no written standard for such things, but it may be helpful to have one.
Most people are against stealing--at least being stole from. Therefore, it would be quite useful for a standard to be set in place. It may or may encourage people to follow that standard, but it would be a start. That standard could include giving credit where credit is due, not stealing programs or music or the like, etc.
Our legal system, in having a constitution, does not directly define what is right and wrong, but it certainly wishes to uphold the well-being of its citizens... including software companies, musicians, etc. Therefore, I would argue that it does at least hold to fair trade and commerce.
Side note:
Did you know that super computers are like mainframe computers "on crack?"Also, did you know that computers must stay cold to keep from overheating? My fiancee works at a web design company named Liferay and we were just talking about this today... how cold it is at work because the computers are temperamental.
