"unethical and wrong" is subjective. The most successful companies like Facebook and Google have been similarly called "unethical and wrong" for their practices. But alternatively it could be argued that their net utility on humanity is positive. So a lot depends on the definitions of "unethical" and "wrong", and that is a deeper philosophical question.
- rootlocus 9y ago> it could be argued that their net utility on humanity is positive It could also be argued that their net utility to humanity is negative: see the issues with social media and echo chambers.
- em3rgent0rdr 9y agoThe pro and con sides could both be argued. That just goes to my original point that "ethical" and "wrong" are subjective determinations here.
