People learning or not learning ethics doesn't really have much to do with it. Read up on the Fraud Triangle. Unethical job tasks follow a similar pattern. Perceived need ("I might lose my job if I refuse") and rationalizations ("the results of this flawed algorithm surely won't get taken seriously") get you two-thirds of the way there. The third leg, opportunity, is inherent in this sort of job. So "ethics" are really beside the point when the workers confront the reality of their situation.
