    We need to take a page from the EU and force this stuff to happen by law. Expecting for-profit businesses to do anything they’re not legally required to is simply naive.

      I live in the EU and I even wish for a bit more aggressiveness regarding laws like this. It’s a very slow moving machine, but I feel like it does have the ability to create change.

        It 100% does! The next iPhones will have USB-C in them, and that’s not because Apple thinks it’s time to deprecate Lightning. They love their proprietary USB 2 connection! They were forced to upgrade, and you did that!

          Well, I wouldn’t be surprised if instead of going USB-C, they just went full wireless charging…because Apple can’t be arsed to make their products integrate well with others and they’ll find every conceivable way to avoid doing so.
