Why do third party Lightning cables eventually die? (alien.top)

This has never not happened for me, but official cables continue to function for me to this day. Does the iPhone fry unofficial cables on purpose after a certain amount of time?

In the span of this year, I've had two random apparently MFI certified, but definitely not reputable brand cables stop working on my iPhone and work perfectly fine on my iPad (7th gen).
