If your device has good software, it will only allow power unless you authorize a data connection.

* Assuming there is no bug, zero-day, or other vulnerability on the current version of your fully updated device.

Having a power-only cable removes that as a possibility.

Still gotta worry about stuff that could send a ton of current to fry the ports too. USB condoms can help here too but your own power adapter is best.

Ton of voltage. You push voltage and pull current.

Nah, I won’t worry about such problems until there is a chance of it actually happening.
