Privileged people complain because a pure business move is being fed to the less-aware as a huge philanthropic effort.<p>Having been to many villages, I can say without doubt that so called free-internet will hardly bring any improvement in people&#x27;s lives. How do you except a person who hardly knows how to use a phone to use the internet productively?   No doubt, information access is important for human development but sorry, I don&#x27;t have a reason to believe people who can put Internet to a good purpose will have any trouble paying for it.
