PAM (with Sprint anyway) is an extra service that costs $40+ per month and circumventing the fee is stealing.

i'm not certain i necessarily agree that it's the same as warez but i think they're perhaps first cousins.
that's why i say chef has a point. if you hack your phone to go around paying, that's theft of service. a sprint phone as a modem plan is only $15/month. if you're not paying that $15 and you're tethering, you are stealing my friend.
