      Why do you think its evil. So many dont have access to the net and cannot afford it. Free basics would at least connect them to a part of it… Half a loaf is usually better than nothing for these folks

        Ofcourse you would think that way, because you’re a mere myopic consumer and lack foresight.

        This debate is not for you. You’re better suited for debating costs of bread, beer, clothes and such
