Facebook founder calls for international restrictions on the Internet

Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg has called for new global controls on what is published and posted on the Internet, proposing comprehensive restrictions on content that incites hatred and violence, guarantees election integrity and data portability, and maintains privacy.

Zuckerberg said in a statement to the Washington Post on the opinion page that his firm was seeking to establish controls that lay the foundation for banned content and a system to restrict malicious content to the minimum.

"We have a responsibility to preserve the safety of people, that is to say, what material amounts to terrorist propaganda, hate speech, etc. We will continue to review policies with experts in the field, but we always make mistakes and make decisions," the Facebook founder said in his statement. Not agreed upon by people. "

Bloomberg described Zuckerberg's remarks as the clearest effort he has made so far to craft a speech on how Facebook collects, uses and transmits information around the world.

Facebook has been the target of scrutiny and scrutiny by many governments, following reports last year that Cambridge Consulting had been allowed access to data from tens of millions of users.

Earlier this month, the company was criticized for its failure to delete a live video on the social network of the terrorist attacks on the mosques of the "light" and "Lynwood" in the city of Christchurch New Zealand, killing 50 people during Friday prayers.

The personal data of millions of users has been infringed by a recent privacy violation, according to Bloomberg.

Facebook has developed a content monitoring system that has added restrictions on reactions to changes in user behavior, or the public outcry over an incident like the one in New Zealand.

The company announced last week that it was in the process of banning the publication and transmission of material promoting the superiority of white race or the separatism of some whites from their platforms.

When users of websites or electronic devices report complicated partnerships, their complaints are turned into 15,000 company content managers around the world, allowing them to remove content if they violate the established rules.

But this process is not always accurate. "Legislators often tell me that we have very broad authority over speeches and statements, and I agree with them frankly," Zuckerberg said in a blog he wrote on Saturday. "I have the belief that we should not make many important decisions on our own About a letter or statement. "
