It looks like it is true. Slate has an article on it:<br>
<a href="https://amp.slate.com/technology/2018/07/spectrum-forced-to-leave-new-york-after-failing-to-meet-the-terms-of-its-2016-merger-with-time-warner.html" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://amp.slate.com/technolo<wbr>gy/2018/07/spectrum-forced-to-<wbr>leave-new-york-after-failing-<wbr>to-meet-the-terms-of-its-2016-<wbr>merger-with-time-warner.html</a><br>
<br>
The part that caught my eye was:<br>
The company provides internet, cable, and phone services to more than *2* *million* customers in New York.<br>
Apart from banning Spectrum from New York, the commission is also fining the company $3 million.<br>
<br>
There are other news sources that corroborate this.<br>

Cuomo admin does some interesting things when poked from the left.<br>

They cover the Capital District. It's the only option for me up here in Troy.<br>
