Stop letting carriers charge for wifi tehtering

Created by A.G. on April 18, 2014

For years carriers such as Sprint and Tmobile have been allowed to charge costumers for wifi tehtering a feature built into most phones. This should be unlawful and considered robbery to charge for these services.

Charging money for tethering is charging phone users to use the data they already pay for, on a different device. Wi-Fi thethering is curcial for some people to get internet on thier laptop or tablet. Charging for this service drives people to try dangerous methods such as jailbreaking or rooting.

Bottomline it should be the customers right to use thier data to tether other devices to thier phone. We ask you to help stop this injustice being done and stop carriers from charging for a basic phone feature.
