Why do cell phones have a data limit but home internet doesn't? - eviltoast

Why do cell phones have a data limit but home internet doesn’t? I understand bandwidth limits, but how can home internet get away with giving users all the data they can use, but cell phone providers can’t?

    50GB a month though?? You don’t use any video streaming services at all? What do you use for media?

      I do browse through YT videos, but I don’t bother watching full length movies. Honestly, I’ve lost interest in watching newer movies, seems like a waste of time to me. However, I do enjoy educational and scientific content.
