ELI5 Why do mobile networks in US restrict data usage so much?

In the UK,  you can get unlimited data on 4g, minutes and texts from around £20/month.  I have never been throttled or charged extra with my usage around 7-10gb per month.

They're a business that wants to make as much money as possible, and they are allowed to  operate with a business model that makes more money when you exceed your bandwidth. The UK market either won't tolerate this because unlimited data is the standard, or the government is somehow regulating the industry to avoid caps.

It'll continue until someone comes out with uncapped regional offerings that are so much more price competitive that they really start eroding the current companies' market share , or when the US communications groups start regulating the industry to stop it.
