Can we talk about that public USB charging station at the Denver airport?

I saw one last week and remembered reading that hackers can use them to install malware, so now I only use a portable power bank when I travel.

I used to plug into those airport stations without a second thought. Reading about the malware risk a few years back was a real eye-opener for me. Now my travel bag always has a charged power bank. It just isn't worth the chance of someone getting into my phone.

My cousin got his email hacked at a coffee shop charging station, lost all his vacation photos. Took him weeks to get everything back. Makes you realize how sneaky those little USB ports can be.
