I wonder what that will do for security. It seems the publicly known exploits tend to use the wired connection to swipe data from the phone. It would likely be much more difficult to do that wirelessly. It would be a shame to lose the potential hardening benefits because of some lawmakers who may not have privacy as a core interest... or indeed quite the opposite.

This is strictly about charging, so a phone that uses USB for charging only, and does synchronization etc wirelessly, should still be compliant.

You can always not connect the data wires to the port.

Then you can't use USB-PD protocol and only get the gimped resistor-based current negotiation.

USB-PD doesn't use the data wires (dp/dn or the two high speed diffpairs), it uses a sidechannel (CC). You can have a full PD implementation without a host controller or any data connection.
