IMEI Thievery; A Nation Of Hypocrites. by Elxandre(m): 12:14pm On Aug 20, 2015
I created this thread with the newly released phone, Infinix Hot 2 in mind.

This is a country that supposedly hates stealing and even go as far as lynching petty thieves.
But we "tweak" and steal the data incentives offered to people who buy phones with their hard earned money.

People defend tweaking to browse Free on our ISPs, with the premise that they are only "revenging" the evil done to them by these service providers, who have refused to provide truly affordable data.

My Question is, why should I buy a phone and meet my data already stolen, when I'm not the ISP that you have your grudge against?

This is synonymous with stealing and corruption, and if you actually campaigned for "change", but still steal incentives from people, you are just another hypocrite.

I find the IMEI tweaking shii arduous. Why should i start tweaking IMEI because of some paltry 1GB when Lord Of The Rings - the return of the king HD is 3.4GB?

Op relax. This time mtn isn't giving out free data to infinix hot 2. Rather they are giving them cheap data @ 5H for 1GB
