OK, the whole point of jailbreaking a phone IMO is for MyWi. Since ATT is now cracking down on unauthorized tethering and revoking users' Unlimited Plans" for users that continue to use "unauthorized tethering" what is the point of using MyWi as it currently works?
I certainly don't want to risk losing my Unlimited Data Plan until there's some sort of MyWi fix for this...:(
 
I'm not a heavy MyWi user, but I still use it every now and then to tether my iPad to my iPhone while on the bus to campus. This is mostly where I use tethering. I use a VPN on my iPhone and MyWi OnDemand via bluetooth. I've never gotten a notice from AT&T at all, although I've never gone over 3-3.5GB of tethering in my iPhone lifetime. I average 500MB-2.5GBs a month. I also used nada for a month while abroad so I might be on the low level of users, but I suppose if you're not a heavy data user you can fly under the radar...
