It's a shame that this title wasn't more descriptive. Here is the gist, which may interest many more HN readers than the current 17 point rating (buried on page 3) suggests:
"Calyx is a famous, heroic, radical ISP that has been involved in groundbreaking litigation -- they were the first company to ever get a secret Patriot Act warrant unsealed, fighting for 11 years to overturn the gag order. ... For $500, Calyx will send you a little wifi hotspot with a Sprint SIM in it that comes with a year's worth unlimited, anonymous, unshaped, unfiltered 4G/LTE bandwidth on Sprint's network. Unlimited as in, I downloaded 60GB with mine and it didn't break a sweat. ... Subsequent years are $400 (because you don't get another wifi gadget, just the service)."
EDIT: Also some good info in Calyx's "Frequently Asked Questions about our 4G / LTE Membership Benefit": https://www.calyxinstitute.org/member/4G-LTE-FAQ https://www.calyxinstitute.org/member/4G-LTE-FAQ
