    Steve Song's February 9th Post:
    <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://manypossibilities.net/2016/02/resolving-the-free-basics-paradox/">http://manypossibilities.net/2016/02/resolving-the-free-basics-paradox/</a><br>
    <br>
    <p>Today the Indian communication regulator <a
href="http://www.thehindu.com/sci-tech/technology/internet/trai-rules-in-favour-of-net-neutrality/article8209455.ece">announced</a>
      that it would forbid the provision of differential pricing for
      data services on the basis of content.  This decision effectively
      bans Facebook’s <a href="https://0.freebasics.com/desktop">Free
        Basics</a> initiative which offers access to Facebook and a
      suite of other content providers for free.  The issue of Net
      Neutrality, Zero Rating, and Free Basics in India has risen to
      prominence in the last year with a hugely popular grass-roots
      campaign to encourage the regulator to block such initiatives.
       Facebook responded by adapting many aspects of their offering to
      accommodate public push-back, including renaming Internet.org to
      Free Basics, opening the platform to more content providers, and
      ensuring the program was open to all network operators.  But for
      many all that amounted to was putting lipstick on a pig.  The
      stakes of the debate grew higher as Facebook embarked on an
      expensive advertising campaign in support of Free Basics.
       Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg made the issue personal by making a
      <a
href="http://blogs.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/toi-edit-page/free-basics-protects-net-neutrality/">public
        appeal</a> to Indians, asking “Who could possibly be against
      this?”  The answer to that became clear today.</p>
    <p>Today’s decision is a victory for those opposed to “walled
      gardens” but it is something of a paradox that the Internet itself
      has become a “walled garden” between those who have affordable
      access and those who don’t.  If we are passionate about creating a
      level playing field on the Internet then we must be passionate
      about making the Internet affordable and accessible to all.  Among
      the many news articles lauding the decision taken by the Indian
      regulator, none were written by anyone without access. The
      disconnected are excluded from the discussion.</p>
    <p>It is an uncomfortable truth that, in emerging economies,
      Facebook had already won the Internet well before Internet.org
      and the FreeBasics campaign began.  Facebook became the de facto
      Internet for many people because it did the most profoundly useful
      thing the Internet can do, connect people.  Connecting people to
      each other in meaningful ways is the secret sauce of the Internet
      and, for the last few years, Facebook has been best of breed at
      doing that.  The <a
href="http://www.itnewsafrica.com/2016/02/nigeria-16-million-visit-facebook-on-mobile-monthly/">16
        million people</a> who connected to Facebook in Nigeria this
      month alone are evidence of this.  From family connections to
      political movements, Facebook has proven itself to be an extremely
      powerful platform for people to share knowledge, act collectively,
      air their frustrations, you name it.  Mark Zuckerberg has a real
      point when he asks who could possibly be against offering this for
      free.</p>
    <p>And yet, this is not ok.</p>
    <p>At the micro level, Facebook delivers exactly what people want,
      connection and community.  At the macro level where Facebook’s
      algorithms decide which articles and which ads to display to
      users, things are more complicated.  Having a private company that
      connects over a billion people making decisions about how and when
      to display information to users is clearly problematic and we
      currently have no idea how to deal with it.  And of course not
      just Facebook but every Internet company that has gone to scale
      from Google to Uber to Spotify and many others.  One of the few
      antidotes to this problem is consumer choice, the ability to
      select a different platform if only to be able to see compare
      algorithms across platforms.  Without consumer choice we have no
      idea whether the beautiful peaches growing in our garden are
      genetically-modified or not because we have nothing to compare
      them to.</p>
    <p>Given the choice between GMO peaches and nothing at all, most
      people would eat the peach.  Indeed, it is morally questionable to
      argue that those who can’t afford Internet access should forgo
      free access to Facebook until affordable “neutral” access is
      available to them.  I believe the only way to resolve this problem
      is to make the Internet generically free for <strong>all users</strong>
      or at least low-bitrate access to the Internet.  This is the
      essence of what I advocate for in <a
href="http://manypossibilities.net/2015/11/zero-rating-a-modest-proposal/">A
        Modest Proposal</a> in which I argue that connecting all phones
      to the Internet by default would make good economic sense for
      Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) thanks to the network effects they
      would enjoy from having millions more data users on the network.</p>
    <p>Pre-paid users on mobile phone networks have always enjoyed being
      connected to the voice networks for free. MNOs don’t do this
      out of the goodness of their hearts but because it generates
      traffic, more people to call.  Also, a significant percentage of
      those users will keep an airtime balance which adds up to a lot of
      money held by the MNO.  A recent <a
href="http://forbes.com/sites/hbsworkingknowledge/2015/09/28/6-lessons-from-mobile-money-ventures-in-developing-countries/">Forbes
        article</a> identifying lessons from mobile money ventures in
      developing countries identifies the importance of offering the
      service for free as one of six key lessons.  It is hard to imagine
      that a free, always-on basic Internet for mobile phones would not
      lead to massive growth in data-rich services.  Low-bitrate data
      for everyone, why not?</p>
