Pretty much this:

I have an older USB C power bank from 2016 and it will only charge with a USB A to USB C cable. This is great information that needs to get to everyone, a lot of people don't know this.

What camera fiasco? I only know them for their battery packs and wall warts.

Oh, they had cameras ip open. Look it up.

Oh. The usual, then.

Again, I had no idea they made anything smarter than a battery.
