@kkarhan @tay @Scarlet @EU_Commission a lot of my more security minded friends block or seal the port off completely or disable the pins;
Depending where you live or work - visit it can be better to not have any way for easy physical access. MagSafe / Qi for charging and keep it off SMS and local cell and other networks with a good, non free or Self Setup VPN

Any physical port is convenient—and non secure. Liability. I’m not blocking mine but I wouldn’t ever use public charging points without the data “condom” or do a small operation to disable data over the lightning port.

@tay @kkarhan @Scarlet yep it’s definitely a good easy to use charger and I have some docks and cables that are nearly a decade old ; if you don’t treat them bad they treat you well too!

If the (next) phone gets usbc I won’t complain or if it keeps lightning for longer ; nbd.
