Travellers warned to avoid USB charging stations at airports


Recommended Posts

Connecting your phone to a USB power charging station at an airport or hotel room could make you a victim of a dangerous hacking technique known "juice jacking".

 

The malicious technique transfers secret data payloads onto the unsuspecting victim's device through the USB charging station, the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office has warned international travellers ahead of the upcoming Christmas holiday period.

I use power bank when travelling. I think I can fully charge mobile/cell phone 3 times to the full capacity from flat, and iPad twice over.

Enough for my needs. 

Man was created as an intelligent creature with the desire to explore and understand :)

I've been curious about power banks, but never used them. What is the mA capacity of your one, if you know?
