IMHO, many enterprises are not worried about felonies or ethics, but rather the PnL, assignment of responsibility, and the bottom line.
Just have a look at various scandals of megacaps. Enterprises that seek to operate lawfully, responsibly, and ethically is the exception, not the norm.
(For example, look at Apple and how they were referred to the DoJ for criminal prosecution, over their execs and legal team lying under oath to a federal judge).
For most (if not all), it comes to a spreadsheet. And if you can do something with AI agents while diffusing responsibility for questionable illicit activity, that’s a selling point, not a downside.
The mental picture that enterprises like to play it safe is the PR imagery, not the reality.
