Internet.org app extends to Tanzania

As Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg explained in Tuesday’s Q3 earnings call, the company wants to expand Internet.org.

Facebook announced today that the Internet.org app, originally launched in Zambia, is now available in Tigo subscribers in Tanzania. Zuckerberg also posted about the availability in Tanzania on his timeline:

We just launched the Internet.org app in Tanzania, providing free data access to a set of basic internet services.

Everyone in Tanzania can now use the internet for free to find jobs, access health resources and use services like Facebook and BBC News to stay connected and informed.
