Apple finally put USB-C in the new iPhone, but it's inexplicably limited to 23-year-old USB 2.0 speeds

No they're not? At least when I check amazon or any other online retailer, USB-C cables are almost always USB 3.0 or higher. Only the ultra cheap ones are not.

We’re talking USB-C to USB-C right?

Do you have links for some of the ones you looked at? Because I checked a few Anker and Apple cables and they were all USB 2.0.

It does seem to be easier to get USB 3 Type A to type C cables, but not C to C.

I was skeptical but then I went to the Google store and looked at their USB-C cables and they are also USB 2.0 speeds.
