if we heavily stigmatized plumbing - imprisoned and culturally shamed plumbers, excluded them from banking and housing, I betcha we'd see much higher mortality rates among people who choose to become plumbers. But still i'm not sure the answer here would be "don't hire plumbers"

Everything you mentioned is unethical. There is no ethical form of child labor same for any of the others. But not all porn is exploitative and unethical. That’s the problem. People tend to dismiss the whole industry which is why people don’t talk openly about.
