Sigh. Let's see if y'all can play along at home:

The FCC and the FBI's Denver field office are both warning people to beware of Juice Jacking attacks at airports and other public places. Both cite "cybersecurity experts."

An FBI spox told me the Denver field office warning was reporting information from the FCC. An FCC spox said its information came from a 2019 NYT article, but that the agency has received consumer complaints of juice jacking.The NYT article cited a warning from the LA DA's office. The DA's post was taken down in December 2021, a couple weeks after @zackwhittaker reported DA officials had no cases and could point to no cases of it happening.

Even though the the LA DA's warning was depublished ~18 months ago and the FCC spox can't name a single cybersecurity expert issuing such warnings, there are no plans to correct the post and no mechanism for the public to challenge the warning.

'Juice Jacking': The Dangers of Public USB Charging Stations

If your battery is running low, be aware that juicing up your electronic device at free USB port charging stations, such as those found near airport gates, in hotels and other travel-friendly locations, could have unfortunate consequences.
