free basics is a relaunched facebook service which was initially named internet.org

Sites which wants to be part of free basics will have to get facebooks approval, there by making facebook the gatekeeper.

Those sites which get approved can be accessed through free basics, and will have all the traffic go through facebook(lovely, isn't it?). Also the traffic is insecure.
