I too appreciate this discussion, and I will look into the authors you noted.

I don't disagree with anything you've said, except that I add one more option to the IC's list: 5) Leave the system: quit and work somewhere else.

As someone who has quit a software engineering job, partially over ethical objection to how my software was being used, I really appreciate this thread and this topic. Even if your role is just “3rd engineer grunt from the left” you share the ethical blame and consequences with the other actors in the entire system.

My hat is off to you for standing up for what you believed was right.
