But my question is this. How do they know I'm tethering and not actually browsing with my phone? Are they able to actually make the distinction and bill you appropriately?

Unfortunately the TCP protocol is always looking for tethering connections. The best thing do is, if you have an unlimited data plan you can use PDAnet. It bypasses (Hides) the TCP protocol and enables you to surf the web using your unlimited data plan. The reason for this is the mobile browsers on phones today, pull the same amount of data as your desktop. There for there is no way of telling using the software!
