> The monopoly of Jio is extremely bad for India. Jio made Internet affordable to 100s of millions of Indians. It resulted in huge drop in data price. The results so far have been pretty good to the Indian society in general. Let's see what happens in future. Also Jio only accounts for 50% of Internet users. > Any of the big tech companies who wish to make a significant presence in India have to go through Jio. Okay. So? American tech companies have millions of users. It's almost impossible that one day Jio/Indian gov wakes up and decides to ban these websites. The public is not dumb. Banning Chinese Internet is not the same as banning the Internet. Unless the US decides one day to start claiming land in India or ban non US internet companies in USA. The likelihood of that happening is very very low. > The monies that Facebook and Google spent buying stakes in Jio is to assure them that their operations wont be hurt. Or they want to invest in a promising tech company and don't want to be left out?
