We have an unethical company in Australia called Jaycar which ripped off an Arduino experimenter's kit from a company called Freetronics. I have not walked into a Jaycar store since the scandal broke out, and never will. I work in the electronics industry and most of my engineers and techs have bought stuff from Jaycar in years gone by, but now my company does not don't buy anything from them. There are local ethical alternatives, including Rockby Electronics and Altronics.
