That's a way more honest response than I expected. I respect that a lot. In the absence of a legal after market or licensed / genuine / third party parts ecosystem, this is, or should be, the expected natural response: off license / bootleg / counterfeit parts ecosystem. In my opinion, then, the fault lies with Apple, and / or the absence of a regulated market for those parts and the necessary documentation. People will find a way to source what they want. How you approach or deal with those problems is probably a political / ideological thing.
