Now if only usb cables were labeled like Ethernet cables.

It amazes me how given the complexity of the USB specifications, where everything looks the same but it is not the same, nothing is ever labeled.

Some things are but the labelling is stupid and tiny. Many laptop ports are labeled but people aren't familiar with the icons (and the icons are often confusingly similar)

Well--to bring it back to the security point, you can't trust the icon on the port anyway. You need a well-labeled cable, and, good luck
