That's not the only reason they were fined:<p>"Parts of the fine are also for misleading advertising, bad customer support, and unfair terms of service. Procon-SP cites Apple’s refusal to repair some iPhone 11 Pros damaged by water, after advertising them as waterproof, as an example of all three."
I know this response happens every time a #BigTech company gets fined, but I feel like this is like even more ridiculously small?<p>Forget Apple, most multinational companies could absorb a 2 million dollar fine without even needing to bring it up to the CFO.<p>This quote just seems kinda silly with the amount<p>>Apple needs to understand that in Brazil, there are solid consumer protection laws and institutions. It needs to respect these laws and these institutions.<p>Yeah Apple has really had the law laid on them with this massive fine.
I think this is silly. Sure, including the chargers was a "sneaky" way to basically raise the price, but they were fairly transparent with consumers what they were getting.
I mean the specifics aside if you fine them at least add two zeroes to that number because I'm pretty sure two million bucks is less than they saved on the chargers
