I wonder what plan that was - wasn't there a "free" Internet thing planned that'd only allow access to Facebook? Time to start tunnelling data.

- richardknop 9y agoI have seen plans like this in multiple countries around the world. You buy sim card and have let's say 1 GB mobile traffic per day but Facebook/Youtube/Instagram is not counted into it so you can watch unlimited Youtube videos and use Facebook as much as you like. Quite scary, it will trap people in these walled gardens even more because of how these plans are structured.
- jgtrosh 9y agoMy first mobile data plan had 200MB of data + unlimited Facebook usage. This was in France around 2011. It now seems weird with all the net neutrality talks (and vastly improved mobile data plans thanks to the push from Free), but it seemed pretty normal at the time.
