Hi Everyone,
I have an android phone, which I can use my internet credit when I connect to my computer using the UBS Cable.
I was just wondering if this is safe as in the security on my computer will still protect me?
I appreciate you taking the time to read this, and any advise/help would be great.
Many thanks,
Lise :)

Hi Lise,
It is perfectly safe, no one can access your data unless they know the password.
Just be sure to double check in settings that that there is a for tethering password.
Hope this helps
