Is this not why my phone asks me what I want to do when I plug it into the computer? USB debugging mode, charge only, and another option or two that I can't remember right now. If I select "charge only" will I be secure in the same way?



This really varies from phone to phone, sadly. When I plug mine in I am only given a choice of which protocol to use to give the host computer access to all my files (and it connects using the default one as soon as you plug it in).


Unfortunately, this isn't universal.
