Sprint Cutting Unlimited 4G Data Plans
itwbennett writes "In a notice posted Thursday on the customer support section of its website, Sprint said it would impose monthly data caps on plans for all tablets, laptops, netbooks, USB and PC Card modems, and mobile hotspot devices — everything, that is, except smartphones. The caps will begin with each subscriber's next bill following notification, the carrier said."
just jail brake your phone and make it a hotspot
Honest off-topic question from a non-USAian. Why is it deemed necessary to miss-spell a person or an organisation's name to convey displeasure or digust. Are terms like "rethuglicans" and "libtards" really perceived as clever? Where did this practice originate?
In your case, would it not be more satisfying to say, "buh bye, Sprint, you bunch of cunts?" Is the verbosity that off putting?
The beaverisation of America is getting way out of hand.
Sprint is actually the only major national carrier still offering unlimited data plans on smartphones. AT&T and Verizon have abandoned unlimited data completely in favor of metered billing. T-Mobile doesn't do metered billing, but they silently throttle your connection if you exceed something like 2GB of data use in a single billing period.
