I really love this article! But I'm also confused about the fourth paragraph of "ok I'll fix it myself". Why does cutting datalines worked? My intuition is you need to cut the USB 5v lines and keep the datalines so data can be transferred without interference. I'm totally a noob about datalines and chips so could you please provide a further explanation thank you so much;)
