He is also affiliated with the Philosophy Department where he sometimes teaches courses such as Ethics in the Professions.

He has written and edited several books on information technology ethics, including Morality and Law in Cyberspace and Intellectual Property Rights in a Networked World. More recently, his interests have turned to the ethical writings of the late Pope John Paul II, especially his seminal encyclical on the moral life, Veritatis Splendor.

When he is not reading papal encyclicals or philosophical treatises, Professor Spinello enjoys listening to classical music and hiking.
