I was unaware that "Internet Ethics" was a thing that existed in this multiverse

No - it's research ethics. As in you get informed consent. It just involves the Internet.

If the research contains any sort of human behavior recorded, all participants must know ahead of it and agree to participate in it.

This is a blanket attempt to study human behavior without an IRB and not having to have any regulators or anyone other than tech bros involved.

Bad ethics are still ethics.
