Alternatively, you could view as a positive signal their decision to leave and find new less ethically compromised opportunities at their own pace. I don't really understand how people choose to go work at these companies, but I appreciate when those who are already there realise they don't understand either.

Any time I take issue with someone's past employment at a company, I never hold that against them without an opportunity for them to address it. Their tenure at these companies is also a major factor in how I view it. Someone that started in the late 2010's and only stayed for a few months is going to mostly get a pass. Someone that joined in 2011 and stayed around for 7 years is going to get a lot more than a cursory glance.

That is, if you worked at Google or FB before, I will definitely ask about your time there, and what led you to leave. This is not necessarily something I would do for some other XYZ Software Co. on your resume.
