afaik the law is already in place (apple pays some fees i suppose) and this is a more general law to generalize more chargers, connectors etc.

That's why everyone else uses usb ports.

Apple supply a usb micro B adaptor with their products.

Only to people in europe.

only in europe and only with their phones (where they have to). ipads in europe also come without adaptors.

Well, I haven't received any micro usb adapter in the iPhone 5s package (just the standard lightning to usb cable). I think it's just a recommendation, not a law.
