The easiest way to protect yourself against "juice jacking" attacks is to use your own cables and chargers. This is less of a hassle with modern chargers that are small enough to fit in your pocket (25W models). On the other hand, juice jacking is mostly theoretical; I don't believe there have been any documented real-world cases. Of course, it all depends on your personal threat model. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juice_jacking > Someone said all modern charging cables support data transfer.

There are several products available, like https://plugable.com/products/usbc-cc1m I believe those must have some active electronics to allow for Power Delivery negotation while blocking all other data transfer.
