Charter Communications won't be kicked out of New York after all.
Nine months after a New York government agency ordered Charter to leave the state over its alleged failure to comply with merger conditions, state officials have announced a settlement that will let Charter stay in New York in exchange for further broadband expansions. The settlement will enforce a new version of the original merger conditions and require a $12 million payment, about half of which could help other ISPs deploy broadband.

Can we kick them out of existence instead?

I would settle for banishing them to Barrow Alaska.

I'm just saying what we should charter, is a spaceship for their executives, aimed directly at the sun.

I'm sure Charter will complete all of their commitments by the 2021 deadline. Just like Verizon and AT&T always keep their promises. Remember how Verizon was going to rebuild infrastructure after hurricane Somethingorother? Maybe Verizon just hasn't finished yet.
