Standard charging cable is very useful. I would welcome this
Ah yes. I know best, so lets use the force of government (i.e. guns, cage, fines). You realize that is commie shit?
I don't disagree that it would be useful, but hey, I don't have to worry about that because I don't buy CrApple products. Problem solved.
You are just hindering innovation and giving a group of non-tech people control over tech.
The Lightning cable was the basis of USB-C connector design.
Lighting cable is shit, usb c is better but apple wouldn't wait. It's not hindering progress:
In protest, Apple claims that the proposal would stifle innovation, but that was shot down by Anna Cavazzini, the chair of the European Parliament’s consumer protection committee, who pointed out that if something better than USB-C emerged, the rules would adapt.
Cuz clearly the government should decide what is the best connector.
That doesn't mean they will be able to pick the best one.
The Lightning cable is the basis for USB-C, that is why USB is now dual insertable. Apple was part of that design for USB-C. The EU didn't come up with that design, nor they ever make a recommendation for solving the USB connector problem.
There is no reason for this regulation. How about they regulate the niggers coming in first, that would reduce a lot more waste.
