Albert Carr, in his writings, likens business to a game with its own set of rules, distinct from those of personal life. He argues that strategies and tactics used to gain competitive advantage, such as planned obsolescence, misrepresenting oneself to gain employment, or even corporate espionage, can be acceptable within the context of business ethics as defined by the business world itself. Carr's perspective suggests that what is considered unethical in personal life can be permissible in business as long as it adheres to the law and the game-like competition of the market.
