"Facebook offered the people of India a trade: free internet in exchange for a little bit of online freedom. And India said no.The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India the countrys version of the FCC put out new laws on Monday that banned Facebooks Free Basics program. Free Basics is a system that gives free internet access to people in countries like India who lack it. The catch? Facebook chooses the services you can access. Those services, of course, include Facebook.The new regulation, which says that "no service provider shall offer or charge discriminatory tariffs for data services on the basis of content," didnt explicitly use Facebooks name, but this puts a clear end to the fight between Facebook and Indian activists at least until the laws come up for review in two years." - MIC
