Report: Facebook’s COO Asked Company To Research Soros’ Financial Interests
Facebook’s Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg asked her staff to conduct research on billionaire George Soros, according to a report in The New York Times.
Sandberg has long maintained that she kept her distance from a Facebook-orchestrated effort to respond to Soros after the leftist icon attacked social media giants such as Facebook and Google back in January, CNBC reported.
“The internet monopolies have neither the will nor the inclination to protect society against the consequences of their actions. That turns them into a menace and it falls to the regulatory authorities to protect society against them,” Soros said at the time, according to The Guardian.
He said social media giants “deceive their users by manipulating their attention and directing it towards their own commercial purposes” and “deliberately engineer addiction to the services they provide.”
This, he added, “can be very harmful, particularly for adolescents.”

“The power to shape people’s attention is increasingly concentrated in the hands of a few companies. It takes a real effort to assert and defend what John Stuart Mill called ‘the freedom of mind’. There is a possibility that once lost, people who grow up in the digital age will have difficulty in regaining it. This may have far-reaching political consequences,” Soros said.
After Soros spoke, Sandberg acted, according to the Times report, which said she asked for information about Soros’s business holdings and whether his criticism of social media was motivated by money.
Facebook later hired Definers Public Affairs to respond to Soros’ remarks by showing that he was funding groups critical of Facebook.
Facebook said Sandberg did not start the process of investigating Soros.
“Mr. Soros is a prominent investor and we looked into his investments and trading activity related to Facebook,” the company said in a statement.
