Google backflips on decision to pull tethering apps from the Android Market

G1 tethering is back, but not for T-Mobile

Seth over at False Dichotomies has heard from Google regarding their decision to remove tethering apps from the Android Market:

We inadvertently unpublished your application for all mobile providers; if you like, we can restore your app so that all Android Market users outside the T-Mobile US network will have access to your application.

It’s unclear whether the original move was a mistake, or whether pressure from the community forced Google to quickly add the ability to filter apps in the Android Market based on the carrier you’re using to access it – but either way, it’s a certified “good thing”.
