New York Kicks Out Charter / Spectrum!

I'll believe it when they actually are out of the state... If they do actually get das boot, what happens to all the Charter & TWC customers? they lose their internet or what?

Charter is kicked out, TWC can't leave.

Interesting, TWC albeit not the best, was much better than Charter.

Exactly.

I'm sure it will be in the courts for months/years before anything significant happens

Why would you give them an excellent submarine movie? Surely a rich cable company can afford that

Charter is kicked out, TWC can't leave.
First of all, TWC no longer exists. Charter purchased it.
Second, they have been ordered to sell the assets formerly belonging to TWC. This does not mean TWC suddenly beings to exist again. It means the assets must be sold to whoever will buy them.
Finally, Charter has been ordered to leave by the PSC, but it is far from certain if it will happen. The order will almost certainly be temporarily held up by an immediate court ordered injunction pending litigation.

This is likely what will happen, as there are millions of dollars to be made by staying.
I'd equate this to trying to evict a squatter. .
