RE: "Even Orwell And Huxley Couldn't Imagine The Threat Posed By Facebook And Google"

The position really when I read it let me know this is very dangerous
Addressing a dinner at the World Economic Forum on Thursday in Davos, George Soros, the US billionaire, gave a harsh speech saying that Facebook and Google were a threat to society and the government organization of both companies should be increased.

"Internet monopolies have neither the will nor the inclination to protect society from the consequences of their actions, making them a threat and the regulatory authorities should protect society from them," Soros said on his Web site.
He also said that social networking fools users by manipulating their interests and directing them to commercial purposes for these networks. He said there is a similarity between Internet platforms and gambling companies where they develop techniques to connect gamblers with a point that keeps them away from their money.
Soros made the remarks just two days after Salesforce chief executive Mark Benioff described Facebook's addiction to cigarettes.
