Do you literally think these people are creating harmful technology because they have had a deficit of ethics courses? I'm not convinced ethics course requirements do much for a moral living. (And a peculiarly large fraction of those curricula often seems to be concerned with agonizing over whether to push various small or large groups of people on to railway tracks to be run over, rather than trying to stop the frigging train) The examples you link don't seem very difficult to assess if they're approached with high priority placed on not causing trouble for the innocent. Also, presumably the people purchasing and deploying systems like that have usually taken plenty of formal education about ethics (and possibly philosophy), and yet there seems to be plenty of demand. Why is that you reckon?
