Zuckerberg's Internet.org will control what billions do online
People in countries like India,1,2,3 Zimbabwe,4 Brazil,5 and Paraguay6 are speaking out about Facebook's so-called Internet.org platform and its ability to control what billions of Internet users can do online.7,8
Zuckerberg's partnership with telecom giants, Internet.org, provides access to a fake Internet where selected services are prioritized over others.9 This scheme threatens innovation,10 free expression,11 and privacy online12
It blocks many of the websites, apps, and services the world loves from being made available on equal terms.13
The fake Internet will also restrict access to local service providers struggling to get a foothold online.14
But wait - there's more!
But their goal is control. They want to decide what you see, all while exposing you to massive security holes and vulnerabilities.15 Internet.org is a reckless violation of net neutrality.16,17
What’s worse: Zuckerberg's closed Internet platform failed to consult impacted users and fundamentally undermines longstanding efforts to create affordable access to the open Internet.18
