Europe’s set to mandate common phone chargers — so where does this leave Apple?

One would suppose they would keep their proprietary charger and just bundle a cheap adaptor with European phones. This lets them continue screwing the rest of the world, and neatly contradicts the spirit of the European ruling by generating more electronic waste, meaning it's a win-win from Apple's point of view.
