USB-C? or just USB-A only? Us mac folks from the era of no-USB-A are curious.

USB-C is easier. There's tons of magnetic breakaway cables to build your own USB-C BusKill. See the documentation:

* https://docs.buskill.in/buskill-app/en/stable/hardware_dev/i...

The reason this campaign is limited to USB-A is because there's no USB-A magnetic breakaway cables on the market.

Please support the campaign to make it available to folks who need USB-A BusKill cables.
