He makes a great point, which is that this is an issue that shouldn't just be on the minds of leadership, legal teams, and PR; increasingly decisions that impact people's lives in massive ways are made on the level of the engineers and data scientists who are actually making the implementations, and they need to be every bit as aware of the ethical implications of what they're doing as anyone else (if not moreso).
In this day and age a single line of code written by a junior engineer could drive something that millions of people interact with hundreds of times a day. This is going to have an impact on those people's lives.
