It's not a-priori correctness, but a-priori precedence, or respect. You live in a society, you benefit from society, you would not be capable of starting a business without society, so you shouldn't casually dismiss society. Basically all I'm saying is that you need a good reason to break the rules. "This makes it harder for me to make money" is not a good reason. "There's no other way to achieve my worthwhile goal" is a good reason.

Dismissing a restriction of society is not the same as dismissing society, in the same way that ignoring the speed limit or ripping your own music is not the same as ignoring the concept of law.

I agree, and you shouldn't ignore the speed limit or pirate music without good reason. I'm not saying follow the law at all costs, but give the law the benefit of the doubt. In a mostly democratic society, rules are often (obviously not always) there for good reason even if at a glance they seem pointless or wrong.
