USB-C from all indications is the way to go and i don't understand Apple's stance over it. All is I see is the want of profit and customer control....
The EU regulators should remain firm 💪🏾💯

Think having microUSB nowadays instead of usbC and not lightning 10 years ago
You cant force the tech to grow and moving forward because that law to force everybody to adopt a standard is for the next 8 years constitutional speaking
EU, please leave Apple and the other tech giants to move forward we dont want usbC for 12 years from now on

those previous users will have to buy more cables anyway.

You are still forgetting a *today* in your comments, because you keep thinking in today's technology -- not how we could harness e.g., renewable energy that would be loss either way and transfer it to something useful, the battery in your phone.
It's very clear to me you know very little about research and innovation; sorry, but that's the cold hard truth.

The ability to leave IOS altogether is not what makes it closed... What kind of logic is that it's like saying if a criminal leaves prison then because he left the building the building is not a prison anymore....
You cant transfer files without hassle on IOS, you literally are unable to connect with 99% of other hardware via Bluetooth etc unless it's apple hardware

Every component in your Iphone is attached to the phone software. Even if you swap it (not Apple, YOU or other 3rd party service) with genuine same part from same but other iphone, you will get warning on the screen. So you even don't own the **** thing you paid for it :) How repairable is that? And even if apple fix it at 3-4 time prices they will always push you towards buying new one instead of they fix yours. It's not even yours they do whatever they can to push you for new one every time.

Study about phones before defending or bashing blindly
iPad pro from 2017 have pRo MoTioN and it's variable from 10Hz and 120Hz while most of 120Hz Androids are fixed
Can android fans do anything other than crying?

No need to buy a new charger as you so claim. In fact, if anything, it's the EU that wants you to do ditch all your USB-A chargers for the "one and true universal" USB-C charger.

I do wonder what this means for magnetic ports/connectors. If there's an innovative future for connection, it would be magnetic ports for safety and better water resistance.
