I'm not "endorsing" anything. Just grasping the obvious.
Your analogy to support the use of someone else's 3G network in a manner that violates the ToS you (rhetorical) agreed to by clicking "buy now" is tired and really not very apt.
I myself don't use analogies. Mainly because they're usually only used to twist what is already perfectly clear to begin with into something else.
If you don't like the Terms, don't buy the product/service. Simple. Or at the very least, don't pretend you have a leg to stand on when breaking the ToS bites you in the ass (like free, unlimited 3G web browsing going away).
I have no issue with anyone not liking/supporting (or wanting to change) the current status quo. Only those who retroactively bark about injustices they were too lazy to notice BEFORE they bought a product... and then use that perceived injustice to defend their later actions.
The main mistake you seem to make on these boards is that you assume those who buy these products/services are ignorant sheep who are unwittingly making a deal with the devil. When the truth of the matter is that most (especially here) aren't blind--or stupid. They've just learned to pick and choose their battles... and "gadget ideology" just ain't a battle most are willing to gird their loins for. You're preaching to the choir that already heard the sermon a dozen times and decided they don't care.
