The term 'fair use' is open to interpretation. A mobile phone company might give you '...unlimited texts - subject to our fair use policy...' This usually means your 'average' use might mean sending 100 texts a week, and would be covered under 'fair use'. If you suddenly upped your texts to 500 a week because of an 'unlimited' plan - that could be seen as unfair use - and the company would likely cap your usage.

They must also base their laws on the Berne Convention, Article 10 of which describes uses that may be "fair practice." So, if you correctly apply the fair use or fair practice doctrine, nothing happens. Unfortunately, no one has created a definition of fair use that is widely accepted in its entirety. So there is always the possibility that someone will cry foul and take you to court.
