You are considering only short run marginal cost, not long run; i.e., you're not factoring things like amortizing infra build-out. if repaying that is restricted to a smaller pool of customers, prices for them will go up. worse, this intentionally affects only large, national ISPs, so NY state is effectively leeching off customers in other states to subsidize a NY-only social program. there should be a credible challenge under the commerce clause because of this.
