That's a Twitter link. The EU has a real website.

It's a proposal. And because the industry has come up with the stupid USB-C design it will be USB-C on everything, within two years of agreeing it and the 27 Nations signing it to local laws.

Famously Apple ignored the previous voluntary micro USB in favour of the Lightning connector.

Also on ALL Apple USB-A cable ends for the charger Apple used their own standard to set the charging current, which meant the Apple device would charge very slowly on non-Apple host ports and chargers.
