Facebook wants to use Drones to bring the internet all over the world

A new TechCrunch publication reported on Tuesday that, according to unnamed sources, Facebook is in talks to buy one μη επανδρωμένων αεροσκαφών, για να προσφέρει on σε αυτούς οι οποίοι δεν έχουν. Το κοινωνικό δίκτυο είναι ένα από τα ιδρυτικά μέλη της Internet.org, μια ομάδα που έχει σαν στόχο να φέρει το Διαδίκτυο στα δύο τρίτα του κόσμου που δεν έχει πρόσβαση.

One of Titan Aerospace's UAVs, called Solara 60, can fly continuously for about five years. Facebook plans to build 11.000 Solara 60 and use it to offer Internet access in Africa, according to TechCrunch.
