The world wide web offers the promise and means of continual development and improved access to speech-language pathology services for people with communication disorders. In this paper we describe practices and possibilities for service provision for this population, using telehealth and emergent virtual worlds. We illustrate these technologies with a particular focus on research and developments for people with communication disorders. We then highlight some of the ethical risks associated with the web in terms of the promotion of nonevidence based practices, client-patient relationships and the storage and access of client data. These concerns are discussed with reference to Speech Pathology Australia's Code of Ethics, and provide guidance to speech-language pathologists regarding the potential dangers associated with service provision over digital platforms.
