Please stay on subject and no politics.
Thanks.
Thanks.
I'd be impressed to see how they would detect an app such as wireless tether, especially if you are not using a vzw rom and rather something built from source such as cyanogenmod. The way wireless tether works is that it leaves the phones data connection open and just works as a NAT to transmit traffic from wifi connected devices. On Verizon's end that would be pretty hard to detect unless you have software built into the phone to do so, much like the latest round of updates for the DX and D2.
Well if a website on the other end can tell what kind of device you are using, I'm sure sure Verizon can tell what kind of device is transmitting data over their network. In case you didn't know, a website can tell what OS and browser you are using along with a few other things. And I'm sure Verizon can catch you device reporting this to determine its not the phone.

I say it's time for a mass exodus to Sprint. Maybe they'll get the hint that unfettered greed is not a good business model
I tethered to my ps3 to watch Netflix on the TV, since my HDMI doesn't work on cm7. I would have used it, or watched on the phone, data is data, so why would tethering be bad in that case? I would have used the same amount of data regardless.

I still want to be able to make phone calls. Had Sprint/Nextel once upon a time in NE PA. It was an awful experience. While I agree with Sprint's data policy, at the end of the day, I'm a verizon customer because of their phone network.
If you're tethering over 5gb per month you deserve a kick in the Azz!
All you've done is ruined it for the rest of us.
