It’s my goddamn motherfucking mobile data and MY PHONE. I should be able to use it however I want. My wifi went down because the greedy, cunt-faced shitbags at Comcast stole taxpayer subsidies to enrich themselves instead of actually providing the service we’re paying for. I tried to switch to a mobile hotspot and my phone refuses to open one. Everyone responsible for this shit should be fed to alligators locked away in a fucking gulag. We have no rights and live in a corporate plutocracy.
Not anymore. Now you have to change the packet time-to-live on your PC to match it for your phone, and that’s not fullproof. Google put code into the OS to snitch you out.
Carriers have always been able to tell you were doing it. I used to get calls from AT&T everytime I tried to do it.
what’d they say to you?
To stop using it or they would automatically upgrade my plan to one that includes tethering (which at the time, would have taken away my grandfathered in unlimited data)
wouldn’t expect anything different! man the carriers must have really hated the grandfathered unlimited people lmao
also, just fuck at$t
edit: though thinking back now i would use my hotspot like a maniac on my HTC Inspire and Galaxy S4 and somehow i never had any issues. i’m talking torrenting hundreds of GBs a month lmao
