The future of mobile devices? (infosec.pub)

I wonder if the charging port on mobile devices will go the way of the 3.5mm jack and be replaced with Qi and other wireless charging protocols. I also wonder if we will be forced into Bluetooth for all extension devices we used to connect to usb-c.

My quote explicitly ties wired and wireless charging together into the document. They left it open in saying "we're not establishing any rules yet but these go hand in hand and we'll immediately start looking at wireless charging in the context of e-waste".

My quote explicitly ties wired and wireless charging together into the document.

It just says they are keeping an eye on developments in both wireless and wired charging standards. Not a word on requiring either on any device.
