They have laws about that

So it's in the news that Verizon's "unlimited" wireless data plans aren't exactly unlimited. In fact they're only 5GB a month. The TOS for the service says that you pretty much aren't allowed to do anything remotely interesting with your connection, and aren't allowed to use it as a primary internet connection. The TOS actually requires you to have another source of internet access.

This is what consumer protection and truth-in-advertising laws are for.
