First thing I found on the ikea website is a recall of the older USB charger.
It says right there in your screenshot that it's the CABLE that can become damaged.
Like 90% of all the apple cables I've ever seen. But I guess that's different.
Yes, because they're talking about the mains supply cable which carries hazardous voltages, not the charging cable.
Nobody gives a crap if 5 volts is exposed. Many more craps are given once you get above a hundred volts.
This is the point where I start to worry about my reading comprehension. It's too late for a severe case of ADHD, and too early for a dementia. What the fuck, brain!?
