Supreme Court overtrns Chevron impacting net neutrlity, right to repair and more

The Supreme Court's decision to overturn Chevron deference has significant implications for the administrative state, impacting areas such as net neutrality, climate change regulations, and consumer protections. This ruling challenges the traditional deference to federal agencies in interpreting ambiguous legislation, potentially leading to more judicial scrutiny and blocking of agency rules. The FCC's efforts to reinstate net neutrality and regulate broadband may face obstacles without Chevron deference, with experts predicting a higher likelihood of legal challenges and regulatory setbacks. The decision also affects environmental protections, as agencies like the EPA may face limitations in crafting policies to combat climate change. Additionally, the push to regulate Big Tech and restore competition in digital markets could face hurdles following the demise of Chevron deference. The full extent of these changes and their impact on various sectors remains to be seen as the legal landscape evolves post this landmark Supreme Court decision.
