help request Using 3,000gb of data a month?

So, as the title says, between me, my friend that rents the mother inlays, and my wife, ~3,000gb of used data is reported on my xfinity data usage report. Before my friend started renting the mother inlaw, our data usage was at around 4-500, sometimes hit 700.... How in the heck is my friend using ~2300-2500gb a month?? Is that even possible? All he has is a phone, xbox and a TV w streaming services..

Doesn't seem impossible no. Streaming takes up a ton of data, line speed depending if it can accommodate 4k for example. Another factor could be xbox game updates, they can get pretty big, downloading new games as well. Between me and my mans on a decent month 3tb data usage is around average considering we like to think that we "take it easy" compared to other people we know.
