It really all depends on how someone uses the net. The most data intensive thing people do is streaming, and Gen5 has the Video Data Saver, which limits the speed while doing so, and to a speed lower than 4Mbps. File downloads and app/OS updates might take longer, of course, but people would still most likely do those things, which would use the same amount of data, regardless. Really, the biggest thing that a limited speed would help, data wise, is when people have devices on their network that are using data that they aren't aware of, or at least do not know how or why the data is being used. The longer it takes to notice, the more would/could be used, though. Ads and embedded videos can certainly use a lot of data, and depending on how someone browses they could cause higher data usage when there is higher available speed. The data that ads can use can be combated by installing an ad blocker in one's browser, which can help to save a good amount of it. uBlock Origin and AdBlock Plus are the two most common. There are some apps that can help with the embedded videos, too, causing them to not download.
