Claim 10:
11. A method for use by a wireless end-user device including a processor and a wireless modem configured to enable data communications to support a plurality of network service activities over a wireless network, the method comprising:
classifying, by the processor, each of the plurality of network service activities of the wireless end-user device into one of a plurality of categories including controlled network service activities, non-controlled network service activities, and disallowed network service activities;
disallowing, by the processor, the data communications through the wireless modem when first one or more of the plurality of network service activities are classified as the disallowed network service activities;
allowing, by the processor, the data communications through the wireless modem when second one or more of the plurality of network service activities are classified as the non-controlled network service activities; and
regulating, by the processor, the data communications through the wireless modem when third one or more of the plurality of network service activities are classified as the controlled network service activities;
wherein classifying the first one or more of the plurality of network service activities as the disallowed network service activities is based at least in part on a lack of a user interaction with the wireless end-user device for a previously elapsed period of time.
