    In a speech at the Davos economic forum, he reckons they are a threat to democracy and should be more strictly regulated.

    Google is everywhere and I see it more as a tool, however Facebook can become a nuisance addiction for many which I'd be quite happy to leave. Leaving Google however is not an option that I'm likely to consider.

    ... and Soros is just a menace, generally.

    The name George Soros is always guaranteed to rattle chains. As is the name Sheldon Adelson on the other side.

    Apart from "sides," Soros is just a very wormy individual - with or without any political labels.

    Only talking here about one wormy individual. I'm led to believe there may be several others out there.

    Yes indeed! And there are many "rats" out there in "political land". Remember: NOT all RATS have four legs!

    As long as the basics remain free I don't have a problem with it. I can even put up with adverts if I have to.
