- djoo 5y agoIn some African countries, Facebook is free via Mobile Data (also Wikipedia). Therefore, it becomes the "only" Internet. They even have cases of piracy movies being shared/available within theses sites.
- zekrioca 5y agoThis is so prevalent that there are many study groups on facebook just because of that: it is the only place they can "freely" exchange ideas, and voluntaries from other countries (without these limitations) help by copying and pasting info and documents so others can 'freely' download it.
- axaxs 5y agoThere are a ton. It's weird, because they use FB differently than a lot of people. It really is the 'internet'. Pirated movies and all.
