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.
my pixel 7 with grapheneOS let’s me use a hotspot and USB tether. the USB teathering is way faster I’ve found. I don’t pay for teathering and I quit getting my phones through the carrier just because they lock them down and put a bunch of crapware/Spyware on them. You remove it and it magically reappears, they get paid to put these dumb apps on the phone. Just feels like when you buy the phone through the carrier you don’t own it.
Yep, I have 7a Pixel with GraphineOS and it works.
There are apps I seen on the app store that bypasses the carrier restrictions though too.
Graphene is amazing. I regret not getting into it sooner.
