      1. That’s one reason many chargers have short cables
      2. I really like the proposal someone here has, where you need to bring your own cable.

          If the cable belongs to individuals:

          • they can be ticketed for causing a hazard to pedestrians
          • there’s no problem with an unused cable not being hung up
          • the part of the charger most likely to be damaged or vandalized is easily replaceable
          • a newly parked person can still charge, even if the previous one was vandalized
