Ethical is nonstandard between people. It isn't so clearcut. Barring the whole 'investors, stockholders, etc. Fiduciary responsobolities' Its less about tech and more about business ethics needing a cleanup via legislation.

There's actually a huge amount of agreement between people on what is moral and immoral.

That fact forms a big part of some mainstream arguments for moral realism.
