No it is not. Mobile is either Verizon or AT&T. All the other mobile companies use infrastructure from one of those two monopolies, and follow the same business model.

I haven't ever seen a mobile company that does not have some sort of data cap.

I've had my Sprint plan for a few years and I'm grandfathered in to unlimited data. Before I had Internet set up in my apartment, I used 400 GB in one month with it tethered to two laptops, a desktop, and a PS3. No complaints and no slowdowns.

Are these plans really nonexistent nowadays?
