@antanicus @animeirl as Eben Moglen said a couple of years ago, owning the network infrastructure is the final stage of monopoly control for companies like Facebook and Google. Once they control the services and the hardware then there is no escape from lock-in and pervasive spying for the end user. Taking back control over the network is a mostly unrealized project, but if new radio bandwidth becomes available for data then it might be possible. Trying to stop or delay corporate encroachment like FreeBasics is also worthwhile.
