That may be true in a general sense, but how do you figure, in this particular case? It seems entirely likely to me that SCOTUS will overturn this NY law, based on their actions over the past several years. Maybe they won't, and that would be great, but I think it's likely they will.
- dotnet00 2y agoRegarding this specific case, I personally have no idea. I've had many times where I thought a suit wouldn't hold up in court, only to find that there was a sensible legal precedent for it to hold up (at least in terms of "yeah, this rule exists, so following the rule makes sense"). I've also had the opposite too, so overall I genuinely have no prediction on how the court will rule. Even the article itself kind of shows that the outcome isn't clear, seems like some judges think there is a legal basis for NY's law, others think that ISPs might be able to make a stronger argument. I'm not even sure if the court will rule at all, since unless I'm mixing up the way things work between different countries, the US Supreme Court gets to pick which cases it considers to be worth taking.
