^^ Stop your stupidity please and stop talking out of your ass about things you have absolutely no understanding of.
You don't have to give your data to google. You always have the option of not using Google's software or services.
In fact, Facebook too gets their revenues in a similar manner to Google and people use Facebook too.
But the day Google tries to introduce a program similar Facebook's free basics, they will face the same backlash.
Facebook's Free basics is directly harming me and everybody else regardless of whether they have anything to do with free basics or not. Its directly meant to use a large number of non-tech-savy and free lunch loving people to polarize the internet and to kill any company that they don't want around.
Would it be fine if somebody comes to you and tells you that in exchange for letting him piss in your mouth every day, he will provide free lunch and dinner for a 1000 people (who btw can already afford to get a meal for themselves)? Would you accept their terms? Its a good cause after all.
Want to give free internet? Let them sponsor a plan that allows people to use all of internet unrestricted. In fact let them fund it through Ad's and let them show all the Ad's they want to. Me or nobody else has a damn problem with that.
And this is ignoring the point that anybody who can buy a basic internet capable device can also afford to get a basic internet plan to go along with it.
The cost being levied on those people for Free basis is not acceptable to them. Its as simple as that. As I said, nothing come for free, but you don't have to accept the cost of a service if you don't like it.

Tell this to people who are revolting against free basics.
