Maybe they'll come with something like "For safety, charging with non-genuine USB cables has been reduced to 1W. Please consider buying genuine Apple charging cable or pay just $2.99/month to unlock full speed charging with generic cables. Thank you for choosing Apple."

They’d probably bundle the full speed generic cable charging with AppleTV subscriptions too.

The EU already banned that because they knew apple might pull a stunt like that lol
