But again, I can only speak for the temporary-root option. I do not know whether the permanent-root option will work, nor what side effects it might have.
I don't think you can incriminate yourself. It is NOT illegal to root your phone. It may be against the warranty policy which they can void but that's about it. Also its not illegal to circumvent the tethering features. There is no law against it or for it since the net neutrality rule still doesn't apply to mobile companies. So if they tried to do anything they would have to go to court which they won't since it will have to be decided by a judge and the fcc would step in to protect the consumer. But that's a whole other story.
