They voted for Bolsonaro. Go figure.
Anyway, $2M is peanuts to Apple and the fine is well deserved. They cheap out on a $19 charger on a $799 purchase, the consumers getting what is essentially a non functioning product, all in the name of reducing waste. Then sell the iPones with minimal packaging like a paper wrap and make them repairable instead of pushing updates that break older devices in order to force users to buy new ones.

Look this issue from 2007, involving CISCO: https://www.reuters.com/article/brazil-fraud-idUSN1621022620071016 https://www.reuters.com/article/brazil-fraud-idUSN1621022620...
