The imitationgame

From the movie "The imitation Game"

10.  When Alan and his colleagues cracks the Enigma code, they have to make sure the Nazis do not find out what they have accomplished. What ethic choices does the Secret Service have to make to keep it a secret?

Do you agree with their choices? State the reasons for your answer.

One of the main choices the secret service takes is to keep the secret that the British has finally broken Enigma, this is a hard ethic choices because it means that lives that could be saved had to be “ignored”. They could intercept some of the nazi attacks where the scenario is a bit dodgy so the nazi’s wouldn’t figure out they had cracked their communication system. I agree with their choice of keeping it a secret since there were so many more lives saved by doing so, even though it is an extremely hard choices to make (who dies and who lives), it was something they had to endure. In the movie, Alan says; we get to play God for a while, such a hard choices, yet so important.
