What happens?:
While using the Wikipedia app on iOS with a 4G connection, I received a notification from my provider stating I had only 5GB left in my data package. Eight minutes later, I received another message saying my data package was completely used up. Upon checking my cellular usage settings, I found that the Wikipedia app had consumed 6.8GB of data in just about 10 minutes. What could be the cause of this?

I visited articles including the 2024 US presidential elections, January 6 Capitol attack, Trump assassination attempt, Joe Biden presidential campaign 2024, and the 2024 presidential debate. I’m not sure that these articles would use 6.8GB of data in such a short time.
And I don’t have any reading lists saved for offline viewing.

What should have happened instead?:
Reasonable data usage.
