What is Free Basics in India? Free Basics Review
Free Basics is a step by facebook in connecting 1 billion Indians to the opportunities online, and achieving digital equality in India.
Free Basics gives people access to vital services,
such as communication, healthcare, education, job listings and farming
information – all without data charges. It helps those who can't afford
to pay for data, or who need a little help with getting started online.
And it's open to all people, developers and mobile networks.
Free Basics only work in India only on Reliance connection.It also requires the customer to enable data or wifi but they say that customers would not be charged for using these free services.
Some of the services offered are such as free newspaper, facebook, tech websites, weather website, health website , knowledge website and etc..
More services are emerging with every new day. Most people think that its only Internet.org in a new way.
However,
Free Basics is in danger in India. A small, vocal group of critics are
lobbying to have Free Basics banned on the basis of net neutrality.
Instead of giving people access to some basic Internet services for
free, they demand that people pay equally to access all Internet
services, even if that means 1 billion people can't afford to access any
services.
Government thinks that it is violating some laws and also violating net netrality.
The TRAI is holding a public debate
that will affect whether free basic Internet services can be offered in
India. Your voice is important for the 1 billion Indian people who are
not yet connected and don't have a voice on the Internet.
Has laoreet percipitur ad. Vide interesset in mei, no his legimus verterem. Et nostrum imperdiet appellantur usu, mnesarchum referrentur id vim.
