This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Does this mean they’ll mandate SD card slots and headphone ports too?
Doubtful since those are not required for the life/longevity of the tech.

Don’t worry. Phone manufacturers will appease this in the most frustrating way possible. Kind of like how apple does the at home replacement hardware.
