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.

I only push imperial current electron flow style.

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