This paper seeks to identify and elucidate useful conceptual tools in Floridi's philosophy of information for the development of a posthumanist discourse, especially in information ethics. Floridi is not a philosopher who claims to be posthumanist himself. Nevertheless, there are many discussions in his philosophy of information that provide important insights into posthumanist discourse. Posthumanism promotes a post-anthropocentric understanding of humans and the world by dissolving the boundaries of traditional binary divisions such as mind/body, life/machine, human/non-human, and artificial/natural.
This paper argues that his information ethics is posthumanist in its elucidation of key concepts such as infosphere and inforg, its ontocentric and patient-oriented approache to ethics, and its postanthropocentric analysis of the concept of the agent.
