Can my Android phone be juice hacked by using the library's usb to charge it?

AC Question

can my android phone be "juice hacked" by using the library's usb to charge it?

I just read about "juice hacking" and public charging stations. I frequently find myself at our county library and use the usb on their computers to charge my metropcs android phone. So I want to know if that constitutes a public charging station.?

It is possible. Just bring ac converter. Can't be hacked then....unless you use their wifi.
