WASHINGTON - Facebook's chief executive, Mark Zuckerberg, will defend the social media company before a congressional hearing on Wednesday by saying it faces intense competition, justifying its acquisitions and pointing to China's growth as an Internet superpower.
Zuckerberg's written testimony, made public on Tuesday, argues that the social media company became successful"the American way, by starting out with nothing and providing products that people find valuable. "We compete against the companies appearing at this hearing, plus many others that sell advertising and connect people. We also compete globally, including against companies that have access to markets that we aren't in," Zuckerberg will tell a panel of lawmakers investigating how its business practices and data gathering have hurt smaller rivals.
He will also remind lawmakers of the competitive threat US tech companies face from China, saying the Asian country is building its"own version of the Internet focused on very different ideas, and they are exporting their vision to other countries."He has previously called for more laws in areas where the company has been criticised - such as harmful content in social media, election integrity and privacy.
