Assuming you somehow use up your original data cap in… Let’s say one incredibly data intensive day somehow. That leaves you with (30 days * 24 hrs/day) * 3600 seconds/hr * 256,000 bps = roughly 660 gigabytes. So I guess that’s probably the limit? Plus your original cap.
I highly doubt random websites are eating your data, it’s much more likely your videos and whatnot. I browse a lot on my phone and I generally use 1-2GB in a month. If I watch video, that’s gone in an hour.
It’s not uncommon for a single web page to use 5-10MB. Shopping and social media sites are the some of the worst since they have lots of javascript libraries and pictures. It’s not hard to use a couple GB in a day without streaming anything.
That’s a lot of data…
My household usage is well over 2TB/mo. It’s not unrealistic to expect individual usage to be fairly high outside of the house.
Its not really, I just checked and mine is 23gb usage a month and I work from home.
Well, I use 250/300 GB a month
Exactly, imagine your speeds drop to sub dsl speeds after 30gb. Nonsense
That’s not an unlimited amount of data.
Is it technically unlimited, just very very slow?

Limited to 256 kbps aka unlimited
80 GB per month if you max it out. Seems pretty limited to me…
Correct. But it’s a lot of data.
Modern websites are excessively bloated. That data goes fast.
