    The simple answer is yes, the long drawn out answer has alot of do not get caughts in there.
    Resistance is futile.

    Ping times over 3G are not the greatest. so using it for gaming might not be the best idea. i just did a speedtest using wifi and then using 3G. wifi was 30ms, 3G was 113ms. that will add up to a lot of lag if you are thinking of tethering for gaming.

    He probably meant about your 5GB bandwidth limit.... Remember "Unlimited Data" means up to 5GB in Cellular Carrier terms.

    A common misconception... Don't worry about the 5GB limit, there isn't one

    For Cellular your correct. but tethering (done correctly) does have a cap.
    A gun in the hand is better than a cop on the phone.

    A computer lets you make more mistakes faster than any invention in human history - with the possible exceptions of handguns and tequila.

    If you start using a LOT of data, they can catch you even if you stay under the limit, though it is unlikely. On a side note, get the tank off your shoulder and hold your gun right.
