    Key Terms

    Breach of contract(as used in ethics and law)
    Failing to fulfill a promise or agreement you've made to someone.
    Deontological frameworks(as used in ethics)
    Ethical systems that judge actions based on whether they follow rules or duties, rather than based on their consequences. For example, 'don't lie' is a rule, even if lying would help someone.
    Direct violation(as used in ethics)
    Breaking a rule or duty in a straightforward way—doing exactly what you promised not to do, rather than causing harm as a side effect.
    Indirect harm(as used in ethics)
    Damage or injury that happens as a side effect or secondary consequence of an action, rather than being the direct target or main result.
    abandonment(as what should naturally follow from refutation)
