      The victims of fraud are often dupes, but I hate the fraudster more than I look down on the dumb victim. A crime against a sap is still a crime.

          I agree with that too - we should have an enforced universal format for chargers. I buy a new phone about once a decade so my old chargers never fit my new one.

            Pretty sure the EU does enforce some kind of usb, or at least they tried to a few years ago.

              I tried looking that up and it sounds like it's voluntary, not enforced. Better than nothing, but short of the goal.

                Idk if mobile phone makers were going that direction already, but I seem to remember that they mostly, except Apple obvs, got on board with USB about that time.
