Data is data. They can tell if a phone is being tethered (unless you go out of your way to spoof browser headers, but then they need to DPI check for them anyway)
3 are, to the best of my knowledge, the only network that specifically say they allow tethering (and have an unlimited data plan).
It's a shame that they have pretty poor signal strength in large parts of the south west.
