Vodacom ConnectU - dodgy T&Cs

[ambo]

It appears that Vodacom has signed me up for this service without me making any request. They have now blocked all Internet access on my LTE router until I sign a new terms and conditions.

There is no option to opt-out of this service. I'm not going to sign terms and conditions that give yet another company access to track my browsing and also bind me to the privacy policy of MTN for some reason.

What am I to do?

I have now acquired this "silent notification" nag that won't go away, wanting me to sign in to this ConnectU thing that I have no need or desire for.

How do I get rid of it?

Thanks, Ian

The menu option on the signin page offered "use network as is" so I took that and the nag could be wiped. Gut now I can't do anything on the network ....

Am I being stupid or is Vodacom being ridiculous?

Once I bought data this "service" went away.
