I connected my phone to my laptop and turned on USB tethering and removed all my sims from my phone, but it was still showing upload and download values and some torrents were downloading and uploading. How is this possible if I have 0 internet? I mean, my phone wasn’t connected to wifi and my laptop was still getting internet. Somewhat weird I think? What are the possible explanations here?

If there are no possible explanations, can I declare this a miracle and myself GOD!? :)

    If your phone is connected to wifi it may still share that connection over usb.

    Or another explanation is that it simply has a really long time it averages download speed over.

      Or another explanation is that

      so, no chance I am God? :(

      lol, jk. It’s not connected to wifi so I guess the second possibility makes more sense.

        There’s always a chance. Do you live around a nuclear plant by any chance?

          I don’t, but I have made friends with some of the workers there, they bring me shiny new rocks every week. I see this as an absolute win
