For those still keen on this issue. Goes back to acquisitions of Snaptu and Onavo. Very interesting. 

Memorable quote: 

""You cannot present a marketing strategy as an important public policy in a country. If it's going to be a market strategy, then do it as a market strategy and we can deal with that. But when you mix it with the public policies, it's a whole world that opens that is not good."

What shall it be, for Kenya? Btw, technology neutrality is listed as a principle in the National Broadband Strategy...
