This is a funny example of a dark pattern: along with undoubtedly evil entities like anti-human-rights groups, you mentioned big pharma, probably to promote your anti-scientific agenda.

It absolutely is up to the law to set the standard. Wishing people would all live up to your ethical standards for no reason will always have the same result: no difference. You can wish it all you want but itβs never going to actually cause an improvement to the world.
Making unethical behavior illegal actually does have an impact on what people do because it changes their cost/reward decision
No one makes you work for casinos, big pharma, anti-human-rights political groups, or surveillance capitalism companies.
If you work for an unethical company you share responsibility for the harm they do.
If a company you work for is behaving unethically, quit, and find another job. I promise it is an option.
