The example, written from the perspective of the first author, addresses a number of ethical issues commonly faced, namely, the researcher-researched relationship, anonymity and confidentiality, privacy, and exploitation.

The authors argue that this process of shaping the data is a symbiotic one in which the researcher and the community being studied construct the data together.
