Yep, and all the hypocrisy...

Internet.org — Every one of us. Everywhere. Connected.

When the blatant truth is:

Internet.org — Every one of us. Everywhere. Connected. Through Facebook. Because we need MOAR users! To serve MOAR ads.

I don't know. I think its closer to the good ol' East India Company pushing Opium around the world. No one needs Facebook. It's addictive and warps a persons perspective of the world around them and their friends and family.
