I have to disagree with that,
if you are writing about changing the access point name in my post above as a "breech of Amazon's TOS".
If you change the APN to a non-Amazon service provider, you are subject to that provider's rules.
If you change the APN to an Amazon service provider, you are still subject to Amazon's rules.
Regardless, (at least) the cell tower you connect to includes its GPS location (a requirement to make the system routing work) in the connection information.
So the service provider account automation can tell exactly what physical location you are calling from (Twain, Italy, USA, Germany) regardless of the access point name used.
And nothing the user can do to change or "spoof" that, it isn't accessible to the user.
