If you grew up, and you never had a computer, and you've never used the Internet, and someone asked you if you wanted to buy a data plan, your response would be 'What's a data plan, and why would I want to use this?'

What we know is smartphones are everywhere and they are rich in data. What we know is that there are apps once downloaded by the consumer that will also in turn download the consumers' contact book. Most consumers don't want that to happen and don't know it's happening.

We have these services that people love and that are drivers of data usage... and we want to work this out, so that way, it's a profitable model for our partners.

It's not fair that people save and work and pay for phones from whatever funds they have, and other people get them for free.

Users get unlimited 'WhatsApp'. We get happy users who don't have to worry about data. Carriers get people willing to sign up for data plans.

As more and more people reach the Internet by mobile phone, we should make sure users are getting the open access they believe they're paying for.

And understand that scarce spectrum is used today for example for cell phone operators, they have to pay for the airwaves they use, for their services.

Every company today is a data company whether they realize it or not.

A lot of individuals out there carry a lot of proprietary information on their mobile devices, and they're not protected. It's a very target-rich environment.

When companies try to guess what consumers want, they essentially make the choice for consumers.
