Will the European Union make USB-C mandatory on Apple devices?
#1
I am not sure if this delves into the kind of things that might get this moved to the other side. It poses an interesting question if a regulatory body can ask for this kind of thing.

The European Commission, which is the executive arm of the European Union (EU), has announced plans to force electronics manufacturers, from smartphones to handheld video game consoles, to use USB-C in an effort to reduce waste, and Apple is not happy about it.

The Commission says that after working with the industry to have it willingly bring the number of charging cables down from 30 to just three within the last decade, it was unable to reduce that number further through a voluntary approach.
