Man of Honour
I should probably note that this is in reference to conversion cables and adapters, not straight USB-C to USB-C, for example.
I got three of those adapters for just under £4 on Amazon. The user reviews seemed good, and up until now they've been working fine. This one in particular was used at work on my PC, and recently someone borrowed it without asking and this is how it was returned on my desk
I already knew about Type-C gate, whereby some cables were not properly certified, or had pulldown resisters, I mostly attributed this to usage with wall chargers and didn't really think much of it considering these adapters were going to be used for data transfer only.
I noticed that they were no longer available on Amazon, and Amazon have refunded me for the order. I also have 3x Aukey versions of the same type of adapter, but I know Aukey stuff is compliant, so have no fears there.
Just a heads up!
