    Maybe they’ll come with something like “For safety, charging with non-genuine USB cables has been reduced to 1W. Please consider buying genuine Apple charging cable or pay just $2.99/month to unlock full speed charging with generic cables. Thank you for choosing Apple.”

      They’d probably bundle the full speed generic cable charging with AppleTV subscriptions too.

      I highly doubt they’ll do that as they’ve had USB-C on their iPads for a few years now already and haven’t. I’m using Anker/other cables I got for 1/3 the price of Apple’s and they work just fine at proper speeds.
