Trade groups claimed the state law is preempted by former Federal Communications Commission Chairman Ajit Pai’s repeal of net neutrality rules. Pai’s repeal placed ISPs under the more forgiving Title I regulatory framework instead of the common-carrier framework in Title II of the Communications Act. 2nd Circuit judges did not find this argument convincing:
Second, the ABA is not conflict-preempted by the Federal Communications Commission’s 2018 order classifying broadband as an information service. That order stripped the agency of its authority to regulate the rates charged for broadband Internet, and a federal agency cannot exclude states from regulating in an area where the agency itself lacks regulatory authority. Accordingly, we REVERSE the judgment of the district court and VACATE the permanent injunction.
Leopards ate my face but even though corporations are people they can not have their faces eaten in quite the same way
These shitheads have received massive government handouts to build infrastructure, which they simply pocketed. Nobody’s face has been eaten in the slightest. To this day they are still maliciously suing to prevent municipal internets from providing real competition.

Are you… are you ok?
That’s pretty aggressive just because you don’t get the joke
When did I claim to be useful?
You’re even funnier the second time
Since you’re stupid let me explain, what i believe he’s saying is that even though corporations are a “person” according to the law certain things that can happen to actual persons (like a leopard eating someone’s face) can’t happen to a corporations
That response is awesome.
