Don't androids disable data transfer via cable by default?

I never charge my phone directly in public places. Instead I charge a simple powerbank I have, that then charges the phone. No idea how easy it is for that one to "be contaminated and carry something over", but being simple, basically no features, just charging and a Led indicator, I suspect the chances are at least a lot less.

Has there ever been a successful exploit? There are plenty of good reasons to use your own charger but from a security perspective you aren't going to die if you plug your phone directly in.

Contrary to the government communications, the vast majority of cybersecurity experts do not warn that juice jacking is a threat unless you’re a target of nation-state hackers. There are no documented cases of juice jacking ever taking place in the wild. Left out of the advisories is that modern iPhones and Android devices require users to click through an explicit warning before they can exchange files with a device connected by standard cables.
