I can't imagine how different this world would become and how fast the 3rd world countries would start to evolve.

Great, now we'll have a whole bunch of newfags on the internet. Thanks Zuckerberg.

We were all newfags once.

Anyways, Zuckerburg is probably doing this mostly for publicity but I sense he is partly doing this to help.

Most of us take the Internet for granted. But think about what Internet access would mean to 5 billion people who don't currently have it.
That's the idea behind a new campaign, internet.org, led by Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg.

"We want to make it so that anyone, anywhere -- a child growing up in rural India who never had a computer -- can go to a store, get a phone, get online, and get access to all of the same things that you and I appreciate about the Internet," Zuckerberg said in an exclusive broadcast interview with CNN's "New Day" anchor Chris Cuomo.

"They're going to use it to decide what kind of government they want, get access to healthcare for the first time ever, connect with family hundreds of miles away that they haven't seen in decades."

More than 4.5 billion of the 7 billion people on Earth don't have Internet access, according to the World Bank. The biggest gaps are in Eritrea (just 0.8% have access), Timor-Leste (0.9%) and Myanmar (1.1%). Even in the United States, 19% don't have Internet access.

About 1 billion people are already using Facebook.

Zuckerberg imagines a world in which everyone has the "same ability to share their opinions and speak freely -- I think that would be a much better place."
"Connectivity is a human right," he added.

Most of you know that I have a particular dislike for Facebook. However, I do like what Zuckerberg plans to do. In a world that's rapidly evolving, I think it's a great idea to make sure everybody is caught up. We don't want impoverished countries to fall behind simply because they lack funding. Thankfully, large companies are seeing they can profit by helping the less fortunate. His plans are definitely geared towards profit, rather than helping others, but I definitely support them.
