Reminder that net neutrality is dead. I use a VPN because otherwise my ISP decides on my behalf when I’ve had enough 1080p YouTube and slows down specifically that connection
Wait, you can get around T-Mobile’s YouTube throttling with a VPN? 50GB is a pittance; I am beyond done with having to switch to 480p after I use it all up in a day. Most games are 100+ GB these days and a Blu Ray REMUX can easily top 70GB, so it’s stupid easy to tear though 50GB simply by downloading onesingle game or movie. Unlimited should mean unlimited.
You might even be able to bypass hotspot limits on mobile data by setting client device’s TTL to 65, which gets reduced to Android’s default of 64 once routed through your phone. This can be done with sysctl on Linux.
Alternatively, if that doesn’t work, just run an HTTP proxy server on your phone. Tinyproxy is easy to set-up, and is available in default Termux repository.
