More on T-Mobile "unlimited" data plans

"For its unlimited data option, T-Mobile plans to charge $20 to $30 per
month extra on top of a voice and texting plan. That means a single
line "value" plan with unlimited talk, text and data is $69.99, while
a similar traditional plan (one in which the phone price is
subsidized), will cost $89.99 per month. Those plans are actually $5
per month cheaper than what T-Mobile charges for plans that slow down
after 5GB of high-speed data use. However, those plans-unlike the new
plans-can be used with the phone acting as a mobile hotspot or
tethered to a computer."

Now this starts to get confusing. There are a variety of older
grandfathered T-M "unlimited" plans, some that actually top out at 5GB
before slowing way down, others I believe at 2GB or so. I didn't
think any of them officially permitted tethering without paying an
additional fee. If anyone can provide more clarity on this, it would
be appreciated! Thanks.
