Comment on I have unlimited cellular data on my phone but not if I use it as a hotspot.

TMobile doesn’t have a hard throttle, but they’ll cut priority under congestion so that if wherever you are has someone else vying for the bandwidth, they get first shot.

Frankly, given that the limited resource is the cell bandwidth, that seems like a reasonable way to go. It doesn’t hurt them much if someone wants available bandwidth and there’s no contention for it.
