However, like others commenting, I think in this instance it's a good thing. It wouldn't even have to be Wikipedia for this to be my opinion; we could see Facebook Zero and I would like it. My take on it is, it's better to have something with a catch than nothing at all. Think of the Space Race: should government be controlling the rockets? Should taxpayers be footing the bill for this immense research? It got us off the ground, and I would argue that's a good thing. Now there is a booming private space industry, because the initial investment, while cause for concern, got people demanding space technology.
If people in African and Asian nations get a taste for web services, for the spread of information, for the ease of communication the Internet can offer, I'm predicting a similar end as the Space Race: private industry will boom once the demand reaches a high enough level. While net neutrality might be at risk in the short term, the important thing is getting the ball rolling. I can't predict the future, but I can extrapolate from the past. People will be demanding this technology in developing markets, and with the Internet comes education, business, and opportunities for improving the quality of life.
