Irgendwelche Erfahrungen zum Teilen?

Not really affected myself but it’s an issue for all the mobile operators – bandwidth on mobile networks is not infinite, but data usage is increasing very fast. There’s no easy solution to that, so discouraging high data usage by the biggest consumers is the logical step.
Big part of the problem is that having an ethernet connection at home is quite expensive. And it’s just cheaper for many people to have an unlimited 4G phone subscription, and create a wifi hotspot at home with their phone.
In addition to that you add all the huge amounts of data applications do in the background, mostly for ads or “spying”, and you end up with pretty clogged 4G and 5G networks.
TBH I’d be more than ok with limiting bandwidth of all mobile phones, so that it’s enough for a 720p youtube video. And have unlimited fast subscriptions more expensive to discourage doing the hotspot at home, however internet subscriptions should be cheaper as well to compensate.
I’m affected, basically they want to limit users from using their mobile internet as home internet. So limit is at 60gb/month. I don’t even get to those numbers but I’m not happy with their decision.
