Qué problema: #CostaRica no tiene neutralidad de red.
Todos los proveedores de telefonía celular ofrecen planes que subsidian #whatapp #facebook #instagram #waze #x o #pinterest
Esto hace que gente con pocos recursos o los que pasan sus vidas endeudadas estén más inclinados a usar estos servicios y de esta manera se hacen más fuertes las companías.
Cuesta mucho hoy día en CR no tener el whatsapp o facebook.
Es hora que nos hagamos indepiententes de estos servicios. Hasta ahora solamente han estado vendiendo nuestros datos. Y a mi nunca me han preguntando si estuviera de acuerdo con que suban mi contacto junto con el resto de la libreta a whatsapp.
Lo que ahora pasa es que los fascistas en el poder en #EEUU van a usar estos datos para acabar con cualquiera que no les haga caso o que no les caiga bien.
Admás, puede que el día de manyana paren los servicios para país X.
Hay buenas alternativas:

Y que dejen de hacer estas ofertas los proveedores.

Hoy pasé un rato en Transitarte y que bonito pensar en una ciudad con más espacios para recorrer y hacer vida. San José necesita más actividades culturales, que la gente pase más tiempo en plazas, oyendo a grupos, viendo a otros bailar. En la que los niños puedan distraerse jugando.

Me entristece que la mayoría del año la opción más accesible sea ir a centros comerciales a pasar el rato ¿?
