And these kids just have to take a quick jog to the well (library) for clean water (open internet)

The metaphor from the article is getting free food if you worship my god (like a colonial missionary).

For the well example it's a quick jog to a man handing out sealed bottles of branded water. The library is curtailed and pre selected and the water is not open but closed and walled within Facebook.

On HN you don't down vote when you disagree. You put a coherent argument forward to say why you disagree.
