When I was in school ethics was taught. But, it was insufficient and it targeted not right or wrong but instead mostly legal liability. This is where ethics becomes difficult because it depends on what you believe about the universe. For example, in the book Age of Surveillance Capitalism professors who look at people as herd animals is discussed. If people are just another herd animal and it's ok to herd them as we please (like how we do with cattle) than the ethical impact would be different from someone who believes there is a clear right or wrong way to treat people. This impacts the ethics of using technology. Yet, it's often not discussed.
