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?

    I guess for a fair comparison one would need to compare purchasing power between countries, but that still seems like a great deal. It certainly shows that hardware costs can’t be that high, since i assume the device prices telcos need to pay are the same and the only major difference between regions is labor cost.
