GoKawiilExperts say juice-jacking fears at airport USB ports remain largely theoretical
Despite warnings from the TSA, FBI and FCC about plugging phones into public USB charging ports, security researchers note there are no confirmed real-world cases of such 'juice-jacking' attacks. The FCC had issued and later withdrew its own warning after experts challenged how serious the risk actually is, and a 2019 Los Angeles County DA warning was similarly unsupported by actual cases.
