Facebook chief Mark Zuckerberg will support more countries in the adoption of rules in line with the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation. facebook

WASHINGTON: Facebook chief Mark Zuckerberg called Saturday for governments to play a “more active role” in regulating the internet, urging more countries to adopt versions of sweeping European rules aimed at safeguarding user privacy.

“By updating the rules for the internet, we can preserve what’s best about it – the freedom for people to express themselves and for entrepreneurs to build new things – while also protecting society from broader harms,” he said. Addressing protection of user privacy, Zuckerberg said he would support more countries adopting rules in line with the European Union’s sweeping General Data Protection Regulation, which gives regulators sweeping powers to sanction organizations which fail to adhere to heightened standards of security when processing personal data.
