The Supreme Court yesterday rejected the broadband industry's challenge to a New York law that requires Internet >providers to offer $15- or $20-per-month service to people with low incomes.

In August, six trade groups representing the cable, telecom, mobile, and satellite industries filed a petition >asking the Supreme Court to overturn an appeals court ruling that upheld the state law. But the Supreme Court won't >take up the case. The high court denied the telecom groups' petition without comment in a list of orders released >yesterday.




ISPs fear more states will regulate prices as New York law survives challenge.
