The problem is with the flatrates. Flatrates are much more cheaper than the bandwith you could use up with your connection. So the business modell only works as long as they can base their calculation on a one-average-user-per-connection concept. If they'd just bill by traffic, there would be no reason not to allow sharing your connection.
