Law - Regulation - ethics.
The overstatement of an organisation's ethical concerns and actions.
Potentially with the effect or intention of delaying effective regulation of the sector.
For example, if the sector were to set up panels and similar bodies in relation to its ethics, and to successfully publicise these efforts, all of this might slow down the imposition of necessary effective external laws and regulation.
In other words, the argument goes, the issues and protections for affected parties should be a matter of law not ethics.
Examples might include privacy of internet users.
Analogous with greenwashing.
