No one should expect perfection, but I think most would expect any company with the means to follow the laws of every country they operate in, because that's their obligation. If they can't follow the law, they shouldn't be given a <$1M wrist-slap, they should be corrected.

What about the Taiwanese businesses that are disadvantaged by this type of practice? Surely that's worth far more than $1M.

What about the Taiwanese businesses that benefit from this type of practice, by having less competition when selling their cheaper phones? I'm sure Acer, Asus and HTC aren't complaining that iPads aren't cheaper.
This is about contract price-fixing, not price-fixing of apple products.
