Mark Zuckerberg says regulators and governments should play a more active role in controlling internet content.

In a publication in the Washington Post, Facebook's chief says the responsibility for monitoring harmful content is too great for firms alone.

He calls for new laws in four areas: "Harmful content, election integrity, privacy and data portability."

It comes two weeks after a gunman used the site to livestream his attack on a mosque in Christchurch, New Zealand.

Meanwhile, Facebook has promised to explore restrictions on live‑streaming.
