What happens if you charge your throttled iPhone. Does the performance improve while charging vs running on battery ?

I just boosted couple of posts on Facebook. Every single one of them had likes from Bangladeshi click farms. I am not even kidding. Each of the likes had western sounding name with about 30 friends all of who were posting in Bengali language.
I am not sure if Silicon Valley show got the idea from Facebook or otherway around.

I think pricing trends monitoring aka camelcamelcamel.com would be enough for Walmart to figure this out. They don't need to actually talk to each other IMO

I am surprised that there is so much margin. Is this because:
1. Amazon product delivery is so convenient that users don't mind paying little extra or
2. Walmart discounts products valuing their warehouse space more. Thus not realizing there was demand for the product elsewhere or at a different time.
Seems like it would be simple for Walmart to figure out this arbitrage and shelve products for longer time. Any thoughts ?
