I agree with you but he might actually have gone too far when he started murdering and dismembering journalists.

"It's ok when American Corporations do it. We were gonna give the foreign prince a pass cause he's kinda like a corporation, but he didn't give us the exact oil deal we asked for, so now it's a problem."

In this case it just makes this method of marketing non-viable, so in theory does what the fine is meant to. But yeah I'm not so naive to think they won't just do some other shady trick next time.

Reply to How does ink permeate through plastic bags? by DANDYDORF
Most "permanent" inks have an evaporating solvent in them to keep it liquid as you write, then become permanent when dry. Sometimes these solvents can eat through other materials. It is also why a dry erase marker can remove Sharpie from some surfaces, the solvent in the dry erase dissolves the Sharpie ink.
TLDR: the ink is melting through the other material a tiny bit.

You'd have to remove the fish from the foodchain/ecosystem once they absorbed the chemicals in that case (and not eat them), which is probably not feasible or ideal.
