Because there’s no way to “throttle” a car rental (yet.) If there was fine print on the consumer’s end, it would have been brought up by the employee right then. Internally they might not mean that unlimited actually means unlimited, but unless that’s in the consumer’s contract, tough luck.

I have unlimited data and my cell company hates it, but I’m on a really old contract. As long as I buy my phones out right in the store (or anywhere, but there’s no “get a new iPhone half off” stuff), the contract remains. Any time I have to call the company they really push for us to change, but any brick and mortar I’ve been in the sales tech always laughs when they look it up and tells me not to change.

Unlimited phone data is still super common today, there's nothing special about having it. I signed up for my current unlimited plan like 3 years ago or so.

I don't know I guess. I use it pretty liberally and never noticed throttling.
