[Archive Blog (4/2/17)] Right-Wing Trollers vs. Left-Wing Trollers

From last 4 - 5 years Social Networking becomes one of the integral part of our democracy. Social media decided the fate, social media decided the leadership, social media shown their anger, social media condemned and social media trolled. Trolls are the mockery of the system and whether its of any wing Right or Left its bad for the system. Yes Social Media is the platform for Freedom of Expression, Freedom of Speech but that doesn't means you looks like mocking system even if crediting on positives. Some people has different way of working and probably some followers who like the one way doesn't mean like the other ways, we have all rights to condemned if we differentiate the way things are going on but we can't hurt the sentiments, integrity or the respect of the Constitutional Body or any Individual, its same as either take it or leave it. In lighter mode we all can tease someone but entering into a personal level is undignified. Its a art to quote someone without naming or tagging not everyone knows it, tagging and calling personally is a disaster of a healthy debate, is a disaster of honesty and its a only example of personal grudge, ruthlessness. 

In our society we got many peaceful protesters who drawn the truth or wrote it without naming, without tagging, they impacted the system with their best and never feared with any consequences, they even earned respect from the decision makers and will remember forever due to being a selfless voice of a voiceless. Currently in the political backyard we got to see people throwing mud on each other if ideology is not matching then you become either a "Bhakth" , "Paid Voice" or "Corrupt". Today we may be feel free from expressing our views but actually we're not, some 5 - 6 years ago only Personalities from Film Industry and Sports started Social Media specially Twitter out of those no. of Politicians was 1 or 2, later on number of users start connecting with their favorite stars and later on the entire social circle increased, those days we saw some incidents which led anger in localities and the usage of social sites increased, the moment which was like each one reach one for the Country was only possible with social network, yesterday's common man who today are VIPs, VVIPs appeal to keep the momentum alive by appealing into those platforms which led the sequence one of the biggest in modern era.

Importance increased few understood the power of virtual world which led virtual "Karyakartas" of different propaganda which got involved in the social networking to attack - defend and promote, basically we surrounded by social media volunteers who keeps the trend of thinking active out of that may be many who're either knowingly or unknowingly endorsing the ideology as well and tats why its quite unhealthy for someone who really a commoner and get stuck in a cat fight between 2 different groups. Today every political parties trying to become River Ganges who refines Corrupt as clean and defines a Honest as corrupt with his or her party's symbol. Party who claimed to reform the politics is playing the same tactics like others and like others they too fighting against face and not against corruption. Volunteers or Followers of 1 wing cry bay against others and the same reaction comes out from opposite side. People who used to believe in constructive talk too jumps in below the belt conversation because they don't gets the answer which they deserves to keep the dignity high.

Important thing for actual commoners and not who're pretended to be commoners is that if something goes wrong then actual commoner will be grind off, tats why its better not to get involved in every fire which may harm, sensibility in Social media is the most important thing one should understand, yes its a place of where we can express our views freely but we also needs to make sure that we're not breaking any law and order with the same or hurting someone's sentiment. We should always avoid enforcers daring us unless we really wants it in our own risk because only we will be responsible of any aftermath not others. Constructive talk is always better and problem is that despite of youths we have very less constructive platforms or forums where we can share our ideas and express ourselves, nowhere days even innocents can't protest for their rights or liking and the trend continues with Chief of State locking their office sit on streets for striking against face of leadership. Troll means Troll whether its a from of any Volunteers, Campaigners. Face of Societies or from Leadership of one side or other side. We can't excuse or should not support the negativity which only led Brothers against Brothers, Community against Community.

[Archive Blog (28/12/2015) Does "Free Basics", "Free Net" supports the motive of "Independent Internet" ?

In last couple of days a new theory evolved and that is "Free Basics". Free Basics formerly known as Internet.org till September by Facebook is a nice try to spread a business venture on something like charging tax for subsidies. A kind of Public Trust which is working to expand Internet but no one knows whether it is Non Profitable Trust or Profitable Trust if Profitable then who is owning it ? Free Basics looks very pure and a push to make sure everyone get online. But question arise why would any company will do so ? Whats the benefit of that company to provide a freespace which they owns and putting a constant effort on it to let that thing remains on air. Any online piece need 24x7 assistance, if you can't give then you need a venture for it and obviously it will cost you anyways. So who will bear a cost for Free Basics or Internet.org ? Either the Users or Associate Company, if users then fine okey as they can demand and ask for more since they're paying for a service if Companies then either they won't let others to live or will charge from a platform who doing business by the name of Company's Services.

Business is not a easy game one have to follow a chain or cycle for survival. A Company need a B Subscribers to provide C Company's Service for that A will pay to C and will charge from B. When it comes to 1 or 2 companies then both having lots to claim but when market share divides into many then 1 have to face challenges. Spending and Earning start bothering us and we believes to gain more rather then pay extra because thats why the 1 is in the battleground of the business. No one comes to do business just because they to have to, may be some do to face challenges, may be some do to earn profit by selling it to big fish. Whatever the moral of the particular company or its boss we should understand one thing that no one will ever launch a service without profit, either its a hidden profit or on record profit. They will workout on every aspect of earning hence it can't be consider is for manhood. If want service then we have to learns to pay as well.

"Free Basics" by name can be understandable about a service which either will be Free or provide Free Access in Basic Services. But question arises that how the Selected Services joining the Free Basic Network and what if others wants to join too ? As of now only RCOM providing "Free Basic" as a part of their services means to get Free Service one should become a subscriber of RCOM !! As of now in this vast internet world "Free Basics" providing a very small subset of 38 Websites and its Services. Some are News websites, Some are Entertainment and so on. It means to get a access of those rebel websites one have to pay then whats the ideology of "Free Basics" and "Internet for all" concept ? As I said few websites may be the part of freeware how they join the network and why others are not ? And also what if Competitors decides not to be a part of "Free Basics" ?

One concept coming from Telecos and that is to create their own platform. Airtel already formed "Airtel Zero" but soon be discontinued because in a public pressure, as a telecom provider they could block or throttle the speed of a certain service which may not wants to join the Teleco approved platform. By this purpose of Telecos and Internet Giants will be fulfilled what would the Subscriber will get ? The internet is so big like ocean that you can't restricts it but can be via Service Providers since its a new way to generate revenue. Voice and SMS subscriptions are come down drastically and out of fashion now after VoIP and other Messengers come to play. Just by subscribing Data Pack one can easily join the conversation in a convenience of each other. Telecos main hunt to restrict such services, unless like Middle East they don't want a ban but they want a separate pack for these to increase a number on their balance sheets. Just like Cable TV by which we can watch very specific channels by opting a desire Monthly Pack.

Ideology of Net Neutrality is very simple, treat all the sites and its traffic generation as equal and no to any monoplay in a internet world. Lets everyone get a equal chance to grow and compete in a open virtual space. Internet now become a growth of earning too as indirectly we're helping internet to expand but unfortunately the more broad we thinks its chances increases to become awful as well. Internet is such a wide range of platform that not only Social Networking but it covers Games, Online Streams like Movies, Music, E Papers, Study Materials etc. everything is available online, whatever you need whenever you need is totally free. Just click in or Tap, one small effort and you're in. There is a proverb "Share Knowledge Gain Knowledge" every participant of Internet World is gaining and sharing something here. Few are misusing it also but maximum crowd adopted it for Positive intent only.

Its totally upto our understanding and thinking to choose one path. Either we want Free piece of service or voice up for low cost internet. Remember Free means whatever service either Operators or Online Platform assigned for you works for free and we surely want creative platform first. TRAI as of now asked RCOM to turn off "Free Basics" service and seeking views from the public regarding Net Neutrality till 31st December. Users can send mail to advisorfea1@trai.gov.in and share your thoughts with TRAI regarding what you think about Free Services from a specific Internet Gaint or Telecos, you can use SaveTheInternet.in a online petition is pre ready made by couple of Tech Enthusiasts you can join it and send the pre written text to TRAI and to your Location's MP as well. Remember Internet can be saved by us only and we can't let any Org. or Govt. body to decide independence in a Internet.
