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!

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.
