In my opinion actually big tech that has been pushing these boundaries a lot.

A lot of new services are really experiments on society. Tracking, Adtech, A/B testing. Move fast and break things, but don't forget that at the scale these companies operate, one of the things to break is our entire society. Especially social media bubbles have caused a lot of polarization IMO.

I feel the social responsibility in these companies is severely lacking. And because they're getting away with everything, the Overton window shifts in that direction.
