Ethical discussions are always quite varied and interesting to read; but you can sum it up as simple as this: Ethics are defined by the societal customs and mores in which they are followed.
In my opinion, you can either chose to obey the ethics provided by those around you and your upbringing or follow your own moral compass based on what you feel your conscious can stand. While it's easy to argue either side; i.e., people can come up with reasons not to do something as well as reasons why they should, ultimately it is up to you.
Now from a legal standpoint... that's another matter and while a lot of it is black-and-white, there are many grey areas depending upon your pursuits.
