I can only assume you pick up the USB sticks that litter your office parking lot and plug them in?

...apples USB security already works on the iPad, and only allows charging until you authorize the device.

And if you know anything about this stuff, that's better than other vendors.

I know something about this stuff, and Android does the same: charging only until you authorize the connected device.
I seriously have no idea what you're talking about.

I'm talking about Apple denying developers access to the USB port, the way they always have with the Lightning port and the iPod port before it.

They've even crippled Bluetooth.
