What is the difference between cellular data being used on my phone and cellular data being used on my notebook? Data is data.

How do they know if the source of data is hotspot? I’d imagine there is a way to stop your phone grassing on you.
Back when they just began recognizing it, they noted peculiar traffic. Desktop websites, batch downloads normally unavailable to that system. This assumes that you utilized the internal hotspot system and didn’t create a separate one. Now? Not sure whether their system is more robust but it should, theoretically, be possible to obfuscate your traffic using third party hotspot software. No clue where to look for that anymore.
TTL in the packet header is 29 instead of 30
If you root your phone and install a custom rom, you can get around it and they can’t tell.
If you’re factory, it sends that hotspot info to them.
You have to turn that feature on.
Could you install a different OS like suggested here https://dubvee.org/comment/1855949 / by Admiral Patrick below?
Maybe, but it’s not worth it just for a few days, which is all I’ll need it for. I just forked over $15 for another 10 gb.
It’s worth it for more than a few days, custom ROMs ftw.
Personally my minimum features are:
All the other stuff and customisation is just tasty gravy.
