T-Mobile illegally imposed 50 GB cap on low-income home Internet plan, NY says
Summary
New York state officials allege that T-Mobile violated the New York Affordable Broadband Act by imposing a 50 GB per month data cap and throttling speeds to under 1 Mbps on low-income home Internet plans. The settlement requires removing data and speed limits, expanding plan availability, and improving visibility of the ABA program, with compliance due within 120 days. The case highlights regulatory action against ISPs for low-income access protections and ties to prior price-hike settlements.
