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.

    That makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

    My carrier has been giving me weekly data packs since mid May, with a use-or-lose-it condition, so I have been actively not using my home connection and connecting everything I can remember to my phone’s hotspot.

    The moment you pay/receive the bandwith, it’s yours to use as you understand; the network can’t interfere with its usage.

    That is gross overreach.

      That’s the way AT&T used to be with their minutes. They called it rollover. Now they basically do everything but tell you to fuck off.
