Isn't USB-c more secure because it doesn't have DMA like Thunderbolt does?

I've seen several articles on HN in the past year that detail serious compromises that are possible via just plugging in a Thunderbolt cable.

I think so, but I am reminded of this sage advice: https://twitter.com/jdub/status/575887350158372864 > Never plug in an unknown USB key or cable. Never plug in an unknown Lightning cable. Never touch computers. Everything is a computer. Run.
