I thought a few providers allowed tethering or allowed x amount of gb tethering, although it's been a while since I looked.
It is fairly easy to hide tethering but I think the main thing is, they don't want to have the support costs of people wanting to setup or use tethering. Data wise, it shouldn't matter to them if someone uses their data quota up on their phone or tethered.
I still have 4G unlimited data and unlimited tethering with Three mobile. An old contract which I have yet to be kicked off. They started kicking customers of this contract ages ago but never got around to changing mine. Brought a new phone outright instead of upgrading the one I got through them, not sure if that played a part.
Still shocked that there are UK mobile customers without 4G in 2016!
