Usually the browser's user agent, or suddenly going from 200 megs a month to about 2GB.

Doubtful. Since user agents are easy to change by the experienced Googler, they really can't prove too much. I believe there's more info that gets sent to them though, such as OS.
So I'm curious as to just how they detect tethering?
Is it only if you take your sim card out and place it into a dongle, or can they detect if I'm using my phone as a modem to access the internet over wifi?
Note: I'm not advocating anything illegal, just curious.
