[kictanet] Coming Soon: Free Internet to Rural Areas (There is never a free ride)

Listers

I'm really concerned about the continued silence of the Regulator regarding Zero-Rating of certain services bundled by telcos in this country in partnership with the big boys and girls of the Internet. Are we not clear how this continued silence and tacit approval of this practice that had basically been outlawed in their home countries is going to impact our nascent Internet economy?

We deserve some action from the Communication Authority.
