    Boy howdy, I sure can’t wait for 99.9% of all manufacturers on Earth to completely ignore this as well, and keep selling devices and cables that are completely unlabeled.

      Stuff that’s spec compliant has to follow the rules, non-spec compliant stuff can obviously do whatever, so yeah the cheap cables off ebay or amazon won’t use the right logos.

        But they’ll still sell you a $180 USB C cable that’s no different than one you can get for $75 and has all of it’s labels.

        Pick a different scapegoat; Apple’s one of the better ones in this area

          Name one Apple cable that has any type of text on it. Or computer for that matter. They do simple. It’s not in their design.
