> there’s no moral failing,

Sorry, but this logic needs to stop. If a company is selling a product online for a fixed cost to an entire region then the people who contribute to that product that do the same thing should be paid the same amount. That is, indeed, a moral failing.

If a company wants to pay workers less based on where they live then their product should be similarly cheaper. We just don't see this though.

You don't understand cost vs customer value.

Isn’t that how we got region-locked DVDs?
