In 2016, Facebook
and others tried to make the world a little worse by creating
Internet.org, a free version of the “internet”, with less
information, less freedom, and less privacy. But because of the vital
role the net now plays not only in our social life, but also in our
work life, people who could not afford a real connection were forced
to rely on this new, watered down and poisoned version.
Luckily, as emerging
nations came to realize the full extent of the hoodwinking that was
going on, they decided to sue internet.org for breaching privacy and
data retention and sharing laws. The money thus obtained went into a
common fund, which in turn was used by those same nations to ensure
that every citizen had free access to the internet. The real one,
this time.
