Court upholds New York law that says ISPs must offer $15 broadband
The linked article is about a New York law that requires internet service providers (ISPs) to offer a $15 per month broadband plan to low-income households. The law was challenged by industry groups, but a federal appeals court has now upheld the law, stating that it does not violate the First Amendment or the Commerce Clause. The ruling is a significant victory for consumer advocates who have pushed for more affordable broadband access, particularly in light of the COVID-19 pandemic's impact on remote work and education.
