New York’s Affordable Broadband Act, which requires large internet service providers to offer affordable broadband plans to low-income households, went into effect. On the same day, AT&T announced that it would be pulling its 5G home internet service from the state entirely,

New York’s Affordable Broadband Act has finally gone into effect prompting AT&T to withdraw its wireless home internet service in the state.

AT&T is discontinuing its home internet service, AT&T Internet Air, in New York, citing the state's Affordable Broadband Act (ABA).

AT&T has shuttered its 5G broadband offerings in "protest" over a New York law that mandates affordable plans for low-income residents.

Fixed-wireless service is increasingly popular in the US, but it costs around $60 from AT&T, which says it's 'uneconomical' to offer a reduced rate for qualifying low-income residents.
