    I think you are right the first time.

    “Unlimited “ only ever an advertising term, to garner attention. No one ever intends to deliver on it .

      I remember when google photos offered unlimited when it first came out. Called that off pretty damn quick

      I just want to add a surprising fact. My mobile carrier does actually deliver on the promise of unlimited data, and an ISP is the last company that I would trust.

          I can try it, but my current record s 50 GB in a singled day. The only thing that it wants is a conformation via SMS for every 18 or so GB, but that is only if you use that much in a single day.
