  While not at guaranteed, killing the data wires (or shorting them) makes the device think it is dealing with a charge only port. Thus various companies have made devices that conditionally apply said short. Here is one example: https://www.startech.com/Cables/USB-2.0/USB-Adapters/USB-2-Fast-Charging-Adapter~USB2CHADP https://www.startech.com/Cables/USB-2.0/USB-Adapters/USB-2-F...

    The USB condom is more for situations where you are in public and wish to charge your device from an unknown and possibly hostile USB-A receptacle.

      That Startech device still isolates the data line, it just has the added bonus of adding fast charging support. It'd be effective as a "USB condom" alternative.
