What is our responsibility, as consumers, towards people suffering human rights abuses in foreign lands?

Consider the cases "Pepsi's Burma Connection" & "Levi Strauss & Co. and China." Levi
Strauss and Pepsi are each trying to strike a balance between profit and
protecting human rights (or at least corporate image) while still participating in the
nations where human rights abuses are certainly taking place.
1. Can a business operate ethically in an area that condones human rights
abuses? If so, how?
2. What is our responsibility, as consumers, towards people suffering human
rights abuses in foreign lands? (For example, do we have any duties
towards them? Should we be concerned about the consequences (for
them) of our actions?)
3. Should governments use the law to try to prevent companies from working
with human rights abusers (trade embargo, etc)? Why or why not?
