joker97:

If USB-C is created by apple then hey you know what I smell more money making round the corner. 30 pin - ligthning, so naturally, lightning to USB-C. $$$

And Vaccines create Autism.

Katy Perry is Jon Benet Ramsy

The CIA destroyed the Twin Towers

The HARP is a New World order machine that controls the weather

USB-C is NOT created by Apple, it is NOT a money spinner for them etc etc etc etc

There is NO conspiracy here.

Feel free to read a wider range of web sites that are not part of the anti-Apple jerk circle

wikipedia is an easy one to start with
