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.
Not a problem in western Europe.
Not a thing in Brazil either.
Though back on my iOS days, people would pay for a specific Cydia tweak that was super complex, super shady and limited that would modify iOS’ carrier settings specifically to allow them to use hotspot. Bizarre to see it being locked like this.
Or in Canada. We pay out the nose for our phone plans, but at least we can use our data however we want.
