TheOct039316yRoute things through TOR?
EDIT: Don't mind me. I just didn't understand the question. -
arazzz4706yOn which actual hotspot setup stage you were asked to provide your cc details? I have setup this quite often and can't recall to deal with my provider's system at all.
-
@arazzz it's any traffic through my data connection. And I can put it through a VPN on my phone but why the fuck should I have to? Just because they want to play big brother, I have to put work in to get around that. It's a pisstake.

@DucksCanCode Had the same problem with o2 right pain in the arse. It has to be a credit card too, you can't use a debit card.
-
@R1100 I did think that but chances are it's going to be a stolen card, and I don't want to risk connecting that to my phone in any way. A VPN or proxy is much safer imo.

So I just decided I'd hotspot my phone to my laptop (as I have no WiFi) and stream a film I've wanted to watch for a while.
Turns out my shite ass mobile provider wants credit card details to prove I'm over 18.
I'm sorry, what?
