Karma is a startup that has received an investment of $ 1 million to mount a very peculiar OMV, as it invites customers to share their mobile connection via WiFi with other unknown people, compensating them for it. They call it social telecommunications.

Karma Each client has a reduced size WiFi/4G router that connects to the wireless network Clearwire WiMAX wireless network and make personal use. User has 1 GB monthly $ 14. The curious thing is that if made public its WiFi signal for others to use to receive additional 100 MB for each user that connects.

The other people in the vicinity just see an open WiFi network and connect a welcome page will declare that they have 100 MB to navigate if you authenticate with your Facebook account.

In this way the client Karma cost increases without the bonus data, other people have 100 MB free which was not expected and Karma gets promoted virally.
