> Facebook paying people's data costs for traffic to Facebook services I think it could be argued that sponsoring 3rd party services required to access Facebook under the condition they won't be used to access competing sites is a novel form of dumping. Clearly the goal is to get poor people hooked on FB before they can afford to buy actual Internet access and decide for themselves. And suggesting that this monopolistic propaganda initiative can be called "Internet Basics" is a direct affront to the Internet itself. If Facebook actually wanted to be neutral they would sponsor unrestricted access with small data cap. Still good enough for browsing Facebook and Wikipedia but without the vendor lock-in.
