Isn't that just "tethering" at that point?

Yeah, but you need a unlocked phone to do it. And even then the carriers will slow down traffic they think didn't come from a phone with os fingerprinting or ttl.

So this product makes sense as it will just work without customers having to install a free operating system and a VPN to mask their traffic (calyxos VPN sharing)

For very loose definitions of affordable. Business that makes millions? Sure. Us? Nope.

30 is relatively affordable even for an individual.

[–] db2 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

For internet access you might use maybe. Sure thing bud.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

Ah, i see what you mean now. I was simply saying that $30 is not that bad

T-Mobile surveys current TMHI customers. Several months ago I did a survey that asked me how I use the service.

A lot of people got the $25 off discount and use TMHI as a backup already, and others with limited options use it as a primary.

$30 for 130 GB isn't bad, but $25 for unlimited is good.
