I get what you're coming from, but personally I'd feel guilty getting something for free when I know I'm supposed to pay for it -- even if I disagree with the way its priced. It's not that far from people who justify pirating Photoshop because Adobe charges too much for it.

No this is like buying Photoshop and Adobe saying you can't let your friend come over and use it without paying for a new license.

I paid for the data. There is no difference if I use the data request comes from my mobile device or if it comes from my laptop connected to my mobile device.

Price discrimination is not a god given right nor is it criminal (usually) to avoid. (I can't think of a case where avoiding price discrimination is criminal, but I'm sure there is)

You don't get to set the terms by which someone else sells you something. And strictly speaking Adobe's license probably does prohibit a second user.
