For anyone that tethers...interesting news

---

Seems as thought we aren't the only ones that think we should be able to use our data as we seem fit. The more support that anything has the better chance it has of being in our favor (IE see locked bootloader HTC, Motorola).

Sigh. I think this is a very bad thing.

I can only see two outcomes from this:

• Verizon successfully defends their case, and tethering is aggressively blocked/charged for.
• Verizon loses, and just raises everyone's rate "in case they may tether".

As long as tethering was low-profile with a small percentage of questionable users, Verizon has been putting up a token resistance. Once there is precedence in the courts, Verizon may be a lot more aggressive. Other carriers may follow Verizon's lead on the results, too.
