When lockdown mode is enabled in Android 15, USB data access will be disabled, preventing potential "juice jacking" attacks.

Points taken from article:

  • Android 15 is adding a built-in mechanism to protect your device from “juice jacking” attacks.
  • Charging will be allowed when lockdown mode is enabled in Android 15, but USB data access will not.
  • Juice jacking is a largely theoretical problem you don’t really need to worry about, but it’s still nice that Android will protect you against it.

    It’s smart! Do not expose logic without first supposing an appropriate level of trust. Software can have errors.
