It's also at least equally unethical to republish the same $300 textbook as a new edition each year so that nobody can save a few bucks on a used rental, or, worse, for the professor to publish his own textbook and force everyone to buy it.
So I'd say you're more or less a wash on hiring a "research assistant", as long as you actually read the paper and understand it.
