Hey
@aral. I am referring to http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Wikipedia_Zero …, a program independent of Facebook. -
@RoslynLayton Thanks, just found that. And yet, if we say yes to Wikipedia, we say yes to the Facebooks and Googles. -
@RoslynLayton And we end up with an Internet you log into w your Facebook or Google account. That is a nightmare scenario (& is happening). -
@aral I object to every complaint being billed as an NN violation. There are legitimate practices and problems, but not everything is NN.

@RoslynLayton Right, so just saw Wikipedia Zero. Sounds to me like@Wikipedia being used as wedge for Facebook Zero etc. +@EFF@sfmnemonic -
@aral@RoslynLayton@Wikipedia@EFF Of course good things be taken advantage of by self-interested companies. So? -
@sfmnemonic I repeat my Q: would you support it if law limited zero rating only to services in the commons? +@RoslynLayton@Wikipedia@EFF -
@aral@RoslynLayton@Wikipedia@EFF Ask yourself whether, as a Wikipedian, I would have found SOPA acceptable if it had exempted WIkipedia.
