There is a good chance of a court challenge. I’ve seen this compared to the EPA claiming for itself powers to reclassify certain things as pollutants so they can impose regulations without additional legislation giving them the authority, which the Courts struck down. In this case they don’t have the power to regulate the internet so they voted to reclassify it as something else so they can apply laws that were meant to regulate something else to it.
I believe that the courts identified their current approach as a way around the approach that the court had struck down, so it may not be a slam dunk that the courts will overturn this. I'm sure much of it will be an overreach, so we'll see how it turns out.

Good golly I hope you’re right- and I hope that IF the courts strike it down that the GOP yells loud and clear until people understand what a bunch of thugs the left are for even having tried this crap I nthe first place-
But I have my doubts- dear leader got to john Roberts resulting in Roberts asininely claiming the HC law is constitutional despite his equally asinine brief about why he voted the way he did- so it’s no sure bet that the courts will overturn the FCC’s power grab
