Reply to comment by Tell-Relative in Apple slapped with a $19 million fine in Brazil for not selling iPhones with a charger by mepper

One would argue that an average person would expect an electronic product like a cell phone to come with everything it needs to be operated normally. If it doesn't come with a charger, you cannot operate it normally.

It should come with a fucking charger or at least give you an option to opt out if you already have one.

And one could argue that unless it has a big old DOES NOT COME WITH A CHARGER on the box or whoever is selling you the phone tells you that it doesn't come with a charger it might very well be a surprise that an electronic device that needs to be charged doesn't come with a way to charge it in the box like just about every other piece of consumer electronics out there.

You're basically arguing against consumer protections here, which is always very cool.
