Reply to comment by The_Countess in USB-C iPhone will be mandatory in Europe as EU law passes final stage by prehistoric_knight

Who decides what the consumer wants, the consumer, the market decides, governments always likes to overreach their power just to make a point and for bureaucracy's sake, all this red tape for nothing....

Those 2 don't always agree. What consumer want and what some companies can get away with doesn't always align.

And here the market still decides, through the USB-IF, the only difference now is that it doesn't allow any hold-outs clinging to a old, slow and anti-consumer connectors.

And where exactly is the red tap?

You seem to have a idea stuck in your head that doesn't align with reality here.
