An interesting exchange in the comments on this post:

> Sagar Kamat: Mark The aspect of Internet.org that is in conflict with Net Neutrality is that FB chooses which services are offered for free to the users. That's an attractive way of getting new users hooked onto popular services. Why not just sponsor a certain data cap for users instead and let them decide which services they want to use? That will be in line with ur vision of internet for all as well as Neutral

> Mark Zuckerberg: We actually don't choose the services by ourselves. We work with local governments and the mobile operators to identify local services in each country.

> Cheenu Madan: So Mark, can you explain then how internet.org works in India? Did Reliance choose the services? Why then, Bing Search over Google Search (clearly better) for example?

I hate it when people answer questions like that. Surely its obvious to Mark that the issue was some entity, be it Facebook or a local government, is making the decision of which services were to be available instead of letting the user decide which service they wish to use.

Yet he decides to side-step the issue. Why bother answering comments if you're not really going to address the issues concerning people?
