Facebook Opens Up Internet.org Platform, Tramples All Over User Privacy

@aegibson@identi.ca why god why? Hmmm... I want to develop something for the Internet... I can set up a server and away I go, or sell my soul and those of my users to Facebook for a crappy cutdown version that I must bow and scrap to get approved? Seriously Why?
