Comment on My phone, iPad, and laptop finally all use the same USB-C charger. The galaxy is at peace.

If Apple and the Americans had their way, each of those would use a different proprietary connector.
Americans don’t want proprietary connectors. We’re happy to get USB-C, too.

When did anyone say the EU created USB-C? They passed legislature that required the mass adoption of it and are the reason Apple had to switch from that stupid lightning connector, but I don’t see anyone claiming the EU created it.

Ah, I misunderstood. I conflated “Americans” (lawmakers) and “Americans” (everyone else).
