@EU_Commission Please stop calling USB a charging cable. It’s a UNIVERSAL SERIAL BUS… charging is a **bonus** side effect of it’s (excellent) power delivery. All the emphasis on charging leads to stuff like the iPhone 15 having pathetic USB support.

@clacke @EU_Commission Strong disagree. The single greatest practical benefit is being able to transparently add peripherals to our devices, with a unified, common interface.

@clacke ...on phones?

@clacke Yep. I realllllly don't want everyone to allow the device creators to cheap out on the capability of USB though. Hold their feet to the fire until they include stuff like hard drives, webcams, mice, instruments... whatever. It's getting there, but with things like Qi2 it might give the manufacturers an escape hatch. We don't deserve that, give us peripherals and make these mega powerful computers into **actual computers**.
