So for ethics I'd suggest something that treats software as infrastructure that runs the world, not in an engineering sense but an ethical sense.

I don't yet know how to capture that in three to eight words like your examples.

1.1 Contribute to society and to human well-being, acknowledging that all people are stakeholders in computing.

1.2 Avoid harm.

1.3 Be honest and trustworthy.

1.4 Be fair and take action not to discriminate.

1.5 Respect the work required to produce new ideas, inventions, creative works, and computing artifacts.

1.6 Respect privacy.

1.7 Honor confidentiality.

2.1 Strive to achieve high quality in both the processes and products of professional work.

2.2 Maintain high standards of professional competence, conduct, and ethical practice.

2.3 Know and respect existing rules pertaining to professional work.

2.4 Accept and provide appropriate professional review.

2.5 Give comprehensive and thorough evaluations of computer systems and their impacts, including analysis of possible risks.

2.6 Perform work only in areas of competence.

2.7 Foster public awareness and understanding of computing, related technologies, and their consequences.

2.8 Access computing and communication resources only when authorized or when compelled by the public good.

2.9 Design and implement systems that are robustly and usably secure.

3.1 Ensure that the public good is the central concern during all professional computing work.

3.2 Articulate, encourage acceptance of, and evaluate fulfillment of social responsibilities by members of the organization or group.

3.3 Manage personnel and resources to enhance the quality of working life.

3.4 Articulate, apply, and support policies and processes that reflect the principles of the Code.

3.5 Create opportunities for members of the organization or group to grow as professionals.

3.6 Use care when modifying or retiring systems.

3.7 Recognize and take special care of systems that become integrated into the infrastructure of society.

4.1 Uphold, promote, and respect the principles of the Code.

4.2 Treat violations of the Code as inconsistent with membership in the ACM.

They may take a less ethical job to put food on the table for their family.

They may take a less ethical job to build a financial buffer zone allowing them to take a more ethical one in the future.

They might not have the luxury of working a more ethical job - either picking the least worst option or perhaps only option due to reasons far beyond their control.

I consider myself extremely fortunate that - so far - I've always been able to avoid industries on my moral blacklist.

Now if they follow up on that, or decided other matters are more relevant for them, it is another matter.

Don't work for stupid people (or even cooperate with them). As soon as somebody reveals themselves as stupid, quit, cut all ties. It's not worth it. Every benefit you can get from working for a stupid person will be offset and more by the loss that happens when their stupidity blows up in their face and you'll get caught in the blast radius.
