    There are options for staying safe out in the world.

    I bought a couple of these a couple of years ago. 2 for less than $10.

    Juice Jacking? Regardless of what protections Apple have built into iOS, please don’t do it. Infosec pros have been warning against using public USB ports for quite some time. Just don’t. Buy a battery park or bring your own charging equipment with you.
