    Of course they would, “I’m sorry that all your accessories no longer work guys, it was all the EU’s fault”.

      It probably depends on the consumer. Most (older) people I know are always irritated which cable they actually need, so it’s great to just be able to give them one with USB C.

      Edit: They often have other devices with USB C anyway (e.g. headphones).
