Abstract
The digital economy has such features as (1) network externality, (2) negligibly low marginal cost, (3) high level of traceability, and (4) chaotic behavior that separates it from the industrial market economy. The change is significant enough to force the world to depart from the modern industrial ethics of individualism and ownership to that of altruism and social sharing. Asian communal ethics would contribute to building the ethical and institutional foundations for the emerging Cyber Civilization.
