I have read that e-cigs and vaporizers that plug into computer USB ports for recharging have been found to be infecting the machines with malware. Take care and do due diligence when purchasing/using those devices, or charge only with the 110v power adapter... They've discovered one or two models over in China that had that malware pre-installed on them from the factory. I would not take a chance even on a name brand. Use a car charger or carry your kit with you.

Look no farther than where these tablets are built (and the software installed) - CHINA. Don’t think for a moment this isn’t intentional...
