Depends on your phone and service provider. Most service providers charge
for their "native" tethering; sometimes they don't for limited plans.
With many phones you can run a 3rd party tethering app, but Samsung
phones block this.

According to Sprint, the Verizon court case involved the conditions for
a specific bit of spectrum auction, and doesn't apply generally.
