In some cases or instances, conditions of one might be better than the other. However, universally, I'd say almost everyone would agree that being a slave is bad/wrong/immoral.
- cubancigar11 11y agoFrom a purely survivalist approach slavery is without a doubt a better proposition because it is nigh impossible to break away from poverty. But lack of free and targeted internet is not poverty. Internet is already extremely cheap in India - cheaper than USA for example - and is easily available via mobile phones that are more ubiquitous than toilets! To say that Internet.org is an alternative to no internet is not only disingenuous it is basically a mockery of 'them 3rd worlders...' as if they will never get internet without Internet.org. And that too for India? A country that has achieved more feats in technology domain than many of the first world countries (and before solving the problem of toilet)? It is hard to sell product to a level-headed person. Not to say that Indian government is squarely going to reject Internet.org - Indian government - specially judiciary - is mind bogglingly corrupt - but it should be rejected.
