Was just thinking about how they stopped including headphones. Yeah, I already have enough chargers, headphones and whatever else…

Cynically it’s probably a way to adjust for inflation or whatever by keeping the same price but reducing the amount of stuff you get.

Agreed. At this point extra cables and chargers seems wasteful.

If you need one there are plenty of options, including affordable 3rd party options.

>Not everything is a conspiracy to make more money.

???? That's literally exactly what the point of every business decision is.

There are literally people in the world that can be motivated by something other than money. Some of those people are involved in making business decisions. Imagine that!

Well, no, that's why things like government regulations exist. Some business decisions are to keep within, say, a government target for waste produced.

And government control over these matters is why lobbyists exist

I’ve made business decisions.

It’s not always a conspiracy to make more money.

You are right sometimes it is all out in the open

Agreed. I've never even owned a device that uses Lightning, and I still have a small handful of Lightning cables in various cable drawers.
