I think my iPhone was repeatedly asking about it for similar reasons to yours, as the connector is worn and it can take several plug attempts to make it even charge. However, a malicious USB socket could cause repeated prompts by just briefly dropping the power from time to time to trigger it. (n.b. I'm sure my experience wasn't a sinister attack on my phone, just stating that this is possible to do)
The "Don't ask again" is a little tricky - is there enough information present for the phone to tell if it is plugged into the same or different computer?
A better UI would be for the phone to always default to not pairing. No popup choice would be shown at all. After all, how often do you need to pair to a new computer?
