It's much easier to persuade people with Internet access that net neutrality is good than those without access for whom it's mostly meaningless. Indian Internet penetration ~20% with 1B offline. Reverse those figures and consider how easy the argument and powerful the voice for net neutrality. The long view: strategy, not tactics.

As for monopoly fears, well, remember MySpace and AOL? Internet monopolies have so far not been very durable. Technology changes rapidly and organizations frequently can't keep up (remember Bill Gates's infamous Internet letter?). I'd add that Facebook currently has ~1.5B users globally. Can they keep up structurally by adding another 1B? That's an open question.
