I'm not sure why it would be ethical for a company to charge different for "location of purchaser's computer", but unethical of me to say "I am coming from a computer in a different location", particularly if I do it via legal means.

Would it also be unethical of me to call a (to use an example discussed in the article) Chilean travel agent to arrange the cheaper ticket for me? In that case, there would still be the implication that my location when purchasing is in Chile.

What if it's me having my Chilean business partner, or the travel pool in my company's Santiago office do the booking, since that is where I'll be traveling from on that leg?
