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.
I always buy unlocked Android phones and they’ve all had mobile tethering included for no additional charge. Samsungs.
Paying extra for unlocked is the way to go. I can easily switch carriers at anytime and I’m sure to let customer service know that when I see prices increase or things I don’t like. They are usually accommodating as to not lose your business
That isn’t how that works… Your phone doesn’t determine the cost for hotspotting - your provider does. That’s like saying Samsung gives you unlimited data.
I thought it was like using mobile data and carriers sold phones with Hotspot blocked if they wanted to limit Hotspots?
They probably do that, but even upon activating your hotspot on an unlocked phone, it contacts your provider to check if you’re allowed to.
Sounds bad. Thank god Internet in my country is so cheap that providers don’t care enough to bother with it.
