Supreme Court rejects internet service providers again in latest bid to kill NY’s $15 broadband law

The Supreme Court has once again rejected a telecommunications industry challenge to New York's $15 broadband law. The court first refused the hear the case in December, which meant that an appeals court ruling upholding the law was not disturbed. New York started enforcing the law in January, but broadband industry groups made another attempt to get the Supreme Court's attention. AT&T stopped offering its 5G home Internet service in New York entirely instead of complying with the law, and the industry hoped AT&T's exit would convince the Supreme Court to change its decision. The Supreme Court still was not swayed. In a list of orders, the court denied the broadband industry's request for a rehearing without comment.
