Honest users should care a great deal if the actions of a few selfish idiots cause everyone to lose free web browsing.

So what can those honest users do when someone buys Kindle 3G and does use for all the browsing Kindle allows but doesn't buy any single book from the Kindle store?
From Amazon's view it is not much different from tethering. In fact from data usage point it could be even worse because it is easy to ban a SIM card that clearly has traffic that normally is not possible on Kindle but not so easy when it is a regular Kindle use. |

If you are suggesting using amazon's bandwidth (which they purchase for real money from the cellphone carriers) in a non-kindle device, that is clearly theft of service, and we will not provide assistance for such activities. Last edited by pdurrant; 09-22-2012 at 10:11 AM. |

And I think that's probably enough discussion of using Amazon's sim in ways that might defraud Amazon.
