Google must also reinstate tethering applications from its Android store, which Verizon had asked them to remove

Interesting, thanks for sharing. How come this doesn't apply to the other carriers?

did you quote the wrong person?

Yes. I meant to quote you. My phone has been doing weird things lately.

I've even had a couple times where I want to respond in a thread and it magically takes me to a different one when I press respond.

No kidding

The FCC concedes that Verizon may charge $20 per month for customers who retain grandfathered unlimited data plans.

Android also has it built-in, but you need a 3rd party app to tether for free.
