If it's your average investor, they'll want a return, which will make fair phone stop being ethical.

Isn’t fair phone a for profit company? If it is, doesn’t change much.

If it is a non-profit, then that’s even better, lets get some philanthropist on it.

For profit and for infinitely exponentially increasing profit are two different business types.

There are always exceptions to the rule, but the former usually turns into the latter given enough time.

Only if outside investment is involved. You can survive as a business by just doing good business for quite a while.
