Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced the development via his profile page, stating: "Today, I'm excited to announce the launch of the Internet.org app in Zambia. This provides people in Zambia with free data access to basic internet services like the ones I mentioned above, and means Zambia will now be the first country where we've been able to provide a whole set of free basic services."
Zuckerberg added that right now, only 15% of people in Zambia have access to the internet.
Internet.org was launched out of the conviction that every person should have access to free basic internet services - tools for health, education, jobs and basic communication.
