So it's a non-issue, or what you're trying to argue?

  The comment I replied to >> Most phone manufacturers have since added a prompt asking the user if they’ll allow data to be exchanged. >And doing it badly. I am sometimes using external keyboard connected via a charging hub. The Android phone happily accepts keyboard input regardless of "charge only" setting. I'm pointing out that "data transfer" claim is technically true (ie. a keyboard does transfer data), but not the threat that the article describes (ie. file/media transfer). You can certainly pull off some sort of an attack with only keyboard/mouse input, but it's far harder to pull off and much more obvious.
