Ethics Statement

Ethics is a cornerstone of Visible. At a basic level, we ask the question whether a project or a publication will do more harm than good to shared peace and prosperity for all. This is a difficult question — sometimes even the most well-intentioned people can only do so much within real world constraints and make the best out of a terrible situation. We understand that we should never let perfect be the enemy of good, but we always try our best to understand the unintentional consequences of our actions. If you have any questions, please email MFreddy.studio@gmail.com.
