“How are we recognizing the autonomy of others and acknowledging that they are of equal worth to ourselves and should be treated so? - Will informed consent be required from participants? § If so, what procedures to obtain consent will be followed? (E.g., print or digital signatures, virtual consent tokens, click boxes or waiver of documented consent)28 - Will consent be obtained just from individuals or from communities and online system administrators? § In situations whereby consent is desired but written informed consent is impossible (or in regulatory criteria, impracticable) or potentially harmful, will procedures or requirements be modified? - What harm might result from asking for consent, or through the process of asking for consent?29 - What ethical concerns might arise if informed consent is not obtained? - If an ethics board deems no consent is required, will the researcher still seek subjects’/participants’ consent in a non-regulatory manner? - If informed consent is warranted, how will the researcher ensure that participants are truly informed?”(Markham and Buchanan, 2012, p. 11)
