Regarding his ask that ACM dedicate itself to the public good, the IEEE is already there in its code of ethics.

> hold paramount the safety, health, and welfare of the public, to strive to comply with ethical design and sustainable development practices, to protect the privacy of others, and to disclose promptly factors that might endanger the public or the environment

That code is pretty squarely at odds with big tech's latest malevolent aims.
