"You can't make up for the terrible things you do at your day job with ethics offsets. If you want to truly do good work, you're better off applying your ethical framework to your day job. If you really feel bad about what you're doing at Palantir, go change what's happening at Palantir"
— Mike Monteiro: Ruined by Design: How Designers Destroyed the World, and What We Can Do to Fix It, p. 90
