I don't like that you seem to be trying to drive a wedge between revenue streams and ethical goods. Measuring how much money societies spend on things is the best measure we have of how much societies value those things.
Companies (and people, including employees and customers of companies) do all sorts of horrible, unethical things. But profit (surplus) is a good thing overall, as is symmetric information and competition.
