Getting tech done ethically can be genuinely challenging. A lot of this stuff is new and our society is still catching up in many areas.

But the least you should do as a technologist is to listen to constructive criticism, even if your gut is telling you you're not doing anything wrong.

Maybe you're right. But first try to listen and understand the other point of view. More often than not it'll come from someone wanting to help you do better.
