    Simple solution: if a device you sell comes without charging cable, it has to be written in large letters on the box that you have the right to claim one for free (like cigarette health warning) and the seller has to inform the customer before checkout

      Then everyone will claim one and you’ll increase waste.

      The whole reason they’re removing the cable is because of pressure from governments not to waste materials including it.

        xD no? Why would everyone claim one? I for example would be fucking glad not to receive e-junk with all my purchases

          Because it’s free. I guarantee you 90% of people will take free shit if offered free shit.

          Including it for free completely undermines the whole reason for removing the cable.
