New Delhi:

Facebook's service Internet.org has just suffered a rejection from DoT panel on net neutrality. But a very few people know about what is wrong with Internet.org and how it affects net neutrality when it provides data browsing at a very cheap price. 

Actually, Facebook’s Internet.org is a partnership between social networking services company Facebook and six companies (Samsung, Ericsson, MediaTek, Opera Software, Nokia and Qualcomm) which claimsto bring affordable access to selected Internet services to less developed countries.

The service claims to increase efficiency, and facilitating the development of new business models around the provision of Internet access.

The service is accused of violating net neutrality and favoring Facebook’s own services over its rivals. It is said that Facebook will set ''free service'' service as a bait for its users and hamper the bussiness of its rival. On the other hand, it will dominate the choice of the users about website.
