Yes. Internet.org will hand facebook enormous power that would threaten open competition on the public internet, not just on internet.org.<p>Participation on internet.org is subject to approval by Facebook and ISPs. They choose the winners on their platform, not end users.<p>Imagine a world where, say, 20% of users are on internet.org. If you&#x27;re building a consumer service that benefits from network effects, you must be on internet.org or else you will be eaten up by a competitor who is. Facebook, through its veto over internet.org participation, can now play an outsize role in deciding which consumer internet services get traction and which don’t.<p>App developers will divert resources from building features that users want, into building features that gets them perks from Facebook — probably by pushing more and more user data into the “open” graph. This would not just harm internet.org consumers, it will harm every internet user.
