Thank you: I too found the post a simple summary of obvious things. And I too am skeptical of Facebook's motives here: though part of it must surely be 'let's find causes for poverty that allow us to continue to be Facebook, and allow internet 'unicorns' to continue to be unregulated industry-devouring titans'.

Basically, Facebook needs to find a solution to poverty that ends with them consuming and disseminating the data of billions of people who happen to not be desperately poor. In many ways their best case is all the better if their data is of solvent people.
