Undeveloped, really?

Unrelated to original discussion, is the phrase "industrialized country" even relevant anymore? China is an industrialized country but very different from other developed countries.

A better alternative will be for the government to provide free internet to the poor (like they do with food) than companies creating walled spaces.

Wow! This would be so bad:

1) Govt will have to raise more taxes (this is a curb on freedom). Why should someone else pay for your services?

2) Bigger Govt will have political motives which will murk up the services it provides. Said another way, FB loses business if consumers don't like it, but a govt goes on because it's funded by tax dollars not customer revenue

Or, you know if facebook really cared, they should have provided 1gb for free or something like that.

I don't understand this line of reasoning usually expected of corporations. Why do they have to part with their profits which they have legitimately earned? They can but should not be required or expected to.

Why would you not fund another person's internet from your salary? Are profits that much different from salaries?

Sure, so don't expect people to get pissed when you call the service you are going to provide "Internet" or "Basics". That is not Internet. And basics without having access to Google. Yeah sure.

There are only two countries which have homegrown companies protected by their governments. OP's comment still holds true about US companies not necessarily being good for everyone.

All of which arise from poverty, the same reason affecting humans as well.

You should name the company that treated you so badly. They would likely continue such treatment to others who are on visa.

One additional comment apart from what others are suggesting - some cultures (Asian, etc) are more social than others, you might find it a bit easier to get social with them.
