Appostrophic reviews: Facebook opens its own free internet: Internet.org

With the opening of Internet.org for developers, Facebook took an important step to turn your online projects into a platform. Appostrophic reviews that Internet.org has been much criticized since it was initially presented. While everyone agrees that its objective brings the Internet to everyone, it is noble and the methods used to achieve it are generating more controversy.

Above all, there are serious doubts whether Internet.org is going against net neutrality. And its application allows free access to several pages of basic services on the web, as well as Facebook’s own services, such as social networking and instant messaging applications.

Internet.org developer is now open

So the fear is that Facebook is creating an Internet of ‘fast lanes’ in which the services of the company consider necessary and will have an advantage in emerging markets.

The country has suffered more Internet.org is India, which was supposed to be one of the most benefited by this project; but the fear of going against net neutrality (and users) has led to several local companies keeping aside of the program.

Now Facebook has opened Internet.org as a platform for developers, in response to these doubts about the commitment of Facebook with net neutrality; their position is that the idea of net neutrality is not against providing access to more people.

So, instead of depending only on exclusive agreements with developers, Internet.org is open to any developer who follows certain guidelines, such as to customize our mobile sector, especially in regard to the limited bandwidth; therefore, preference will be given to light web applications, and versions designed for smartphones.

For now Internet.org has been launched in nine countries, with India as the biggest market, and many others. Facebook says the service has gotten connected to eight million people to the network.

For Neutrality

Indian groups like Save the Internet coalition went a step beyond mid-April and accused Facebook of wanting to make the population believe that the Internet and Facebook are the same thing, a charge that the US company vehemently denies.

The announcement of more openness does not seem to have calmed the spirits of this campaign and noted that the lack of HTTPS (Secure Hypertext Transfer Protocol) in the use of Internet.org allow Facebook and governments follow the activity of its members in the web, BBC News reported.

Thus, the company behind the social network admitted this possibility, but said the information is protected behind the Facebook data policy.
