You would think Helio would know better being a progressive mvno. Operators have revenue on their minds, they don’t give two shits about me or you. Access to information via a handset shouldn’t be filtered by the operator nor should they selectively bill for content. This is exactly opposite of what a Free and Open Web is!
For those of you needing access to YouTube, you can bypass this stupid block by adding a query to the end of the url:
http://m.youtube.com/?anything
In the helio forums, people are reporting that this money goes to Google (YouTube). Uh Huh.
Update:
The iphone support youtube out of the box:
