Short answer: All carriers charge extra for tethering/hotspot. Just because you can get around the need to pay for it, doesn't make it free.
As far as I know, Verizon's "tethering" is not free, but I don't think using a hotspot app on a Verizon's WM phone is against Verizon's contract. Yes, Verizon does provide hotspot app for a charge, but that is no different than navigation or music streaming app that Verizon provides for a charge, for which you have other third-party options.

So my question was, if the same kind of ecosystem exists in Android.
