This has not been my experience. I have never been sent to dead links.
I have had them try to send me to a "mobile hotspot feature" upsell page when using Chrome from my laptop while tethering. I figured out that they were checking browser user-agents to determine whether a user was tethering or not.
But the Chrome app on Android allows changing the user-agent to the desktop equivalent with its "request desktop site" feature. So I called and yelled at them saying that they had no right to block me from using my phone in the way that I wanted. They flipped a bit somewhere and I haven't had a problem since.

For reference I am on the Monthly4G $30 plan.
