No we wouldn't.

Cookie pop ups are not happening because of GDPR.
- scarface74 5y agoWhat would happen if the EU enforced a standard before USB C and a manufacturer wanted to use USB C instead of the previous mandated “standard”?
- Kbelicius 5y agoAFAIK they wouldn't be able to use USB C. USB isn't developed by EU but a non profit whose members include different manufacturers. That is where the innovation happens. Having a standard in doesn't means that innovation slows down/stops or that the standard can't change.
- scarface74 5y agoWould a phone manufacture have to wait for the new standard to be approved by the government?
- throw10920 5y ago> No we wouldn't. This is a content-free denial without argument.
- Kbelicius 5y agoThere were arguments in the post that I replied to? Where?
