- tpmx 4y agoThe article doesn't mention what was promised, so I'm going to go ahead and assume that nothing was actually promised, and this is the NYT being NYT. Remember when we all instinctively trusted NYT?
- johnhenry 4y agoThey mention the Free Basics initiative?
- tpmx 4y agoThey delivered on that. That was the zero-rating of a set of selected online properties. Granted, the motive was super ugly, but they did deliver on that. I remember writing code/config for that stuff (not in FB, but in a partner browser company.)
