It's dumb for the government to regulate this. If people buy Apple products then have fun with their proprietary bullshit, no sweat off my back. We certainly don't need laws against it.
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.
OP is an actual commie that wants govt to control it all.
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:
