The OP complaining about their mobile provider not having free tethering. Like brother, you knew that when you signed up for the service (or you should have if it was an important thing you needed). It’s not meant to replace a home internet connection. If you need a sizeable amount of hotspot, don’t skimp on your mobile plan.

Like I can understand being annoyed that you have to pay more for it but it shouldn’t be a surprise that you don’t have access to it. Learn what you’re paying for before you sign up for it. If your internet goes out and you need to rely on it, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that you don’t have it.

Don’t assume companies are going to do what’s best for you. They won’t. They will try to screw you over. So, understand what services you’re paying for and if they don’t meet your requirements, find something else. I’m not defending the companies but you should know what you’re paying for.


That’s not Google pushing that message. That’s your mobile service provider.


I don’t know. I have never tried to use my hotspot for YouTube videos. If my internet goes out, the only thing I’d use the hotspot for would be working from home if that was needed. There’s other things to do in this world that don’t require internet. At that point you bitch at Comcast and get them to fix your shit and get credited for the lost time.

Bitching about the mobile provider that you knew the terms of the service when you signed up is misguided when the issue is that your home internet provider is not living up to their end of the agreement by not providing you with the service for which you’re paying. If you don’t know what is included in your own phone plan, that’s a you problem. Find a new provider.



I saw some people recommend Brave and tried it out. What is with all the crypto integrations in that. Ditched Chrome earlier this year for Firefox when I made the switch from Windows to Linux.


So pumped. Was my favorite Reddit app. Dumped all my Google Rewards Survey money to them as a thanks once the API news broke to thank them. Was hopeful this was happening when updates kept coming these past couple weeks with subreddits being renamed to communities and front page being renamed to home.
