Although I would advise to check their service in your area, T-Mo offers truly unlimited. They have different levels, of course. I go through close to 10GB of data a month.

I use about 3 GB max, but if I go unlimited, I'm gonna get a Spotify subscription so my usage will increase by probably about double.

I like the no contract stuff, so if the service does suck I'm not on the hook for 2 more years. My contract with Verizon runs out this month. My phone is still in pretty good condition so I'm just gonna use it with my new provider.

My sister went through 9GB last month. I thought that was insane, but apparently not. Her bright reasoning is she thinks her cell signal is faster than their wi-fi. I'm pretty sure all she does is Facebook and Pinterest so I'm not sure how she would tell a difference.

You can sync songs to your phone so you don't have to stream them for every play.

Just get unlimited data on your phone and cancel your internet subscription. Then just use your phone to connect to the internet all the time.

Only thing might just be the speed(if using your phones internet like that would make your internet same speed compared to if you just had regular internet), but still....wouldn't it just be cheaper getting an expensive phone plan like that instead of paying for both phone and internet?

I would not be surprised if cellphone companies "monitor" wifi.

What do you mean "monitor"? Like they check what sites people visit,what they download and so on?

Don't ISPs do that too,just many of them don't really care that much about what people do, as long as it's not insanely illegal(cause seems like ISPs are really the main thing protecting people from getting sued big time by companies)

Monitor usage, application adjustments, etc.

So they don't monitor things like what people download or sites they even visit? Not really a big deal then. Who cares if they monitor usage then. If you got unlimited data, not like it really matters how much you're using.

I know people who use their phone as their only source of internet at home,and they might use up dozens of GB of data a month and nothing ever happens. And that's someone who doesn't even use internet for things like netflix or watching any kind of other videos/streams on internet.

If they're not using their service then I don't think they should track them (though they can and do). My concern is they have the power to turn off wi-fi so you have to use your data.

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

I'm talking about data though...If you have unlimited data, then you can just connect your computer to your phones data plan and use the internet off of your phone.

Parents who knowingly send their sick kids to school...

My daughter's preschool has really been the gift that keeps on giving since she started 3 months ago...
First, we had to combat lice. Now, she has pheumonia.

While I know the flu/being sick are unavoidable and you might not even know your kid is sick... but not finding bugs in your kid's hair? Does your 3 year old either not take baths or bath him/herself? Come on now...

Come on. You don't really think carriers turn wifi off, forcing you to use data do you?
