The new iPhone 15 is launching with a USB c port, the iPad moved there a little while ago and their laptops and such all have usb C ports

I hope so. I don't plan on renewing my iphone for awhile, I like pixels open firmware stuff with graphene and even just Android. But I hate carrying around the extra special apple cable

The argument that a law was not literally spawned in the year something came up, Nor a law working retrospectively on the design of devices produced before the law, is not any indication of a bad track record,

In fact, by what you have said here, I would argue that 4 years to push an industry-wide norm in 26 separate nations, with feedback from said industry is an incredibly good track record.
