T-Mobile violated a New York state law by imposing a 50 GB-per-month data cap and reducing speeds to less than a megabit per second on home Internet plans it is required to offer people with low incomes, New York government officials alleged.

T-Mobile agreed to a settlement requiring it to scrap the data and speed limits, to offer the required low-income plans to more parts of the state, and to make it easier for customers to find information about the plans. The settlement requires T-Mobile to eliminate the speed limits and expand availability of the plans within 120 days.
