With some of the software we have out there, they would have no issue in preventing Ghost Tethering (trust me, I'm a software developer) But, they chose not to, because, their monetary gain with rest of the plans and clients makes up for it!

Yeah, the big companies steal from us. Last I checked we all voluntarily gave them our money in return for a service. There's more to the cost of a device and the plans than just the what it cost to make the device. Besides, this isn't even relevant to the topic.

No one is disputing that. Sprint only wants us to use the data on our phone, unless you pay for the Phone as Modem plan.

Read the Terms of Service. It may not be illegal but its is breaking the TOS. Sprint wants us to pay for a service. We aren't. That is stealing. The OP feels we shouldn't be able to talk about it because we can't talk about warez because that is stealing too. Do you see the connection? That's the point of this thread.
