The increasingly massive use of digital technology has influenced the process of life, one of which is in the field of education. Digital technology has been widely used in the learning process from the elementary to university levels. The use of technology also needs to be accompanied by strengthening character education, which can be done through understanding digital ethics. Digital ethics provides an understanding of moral standards and rules that can be carried out to utilize digital technology. Strengthening character education through digital ethics in the current era is necessary because the teaching and learning process uses more digital technology.

Digital ethics is one aspect of strengthening character education in the increasingly advanced digital technology development era. If digital ethics is applied correctly, it will positively impact life in the future
