Mark Elliot Zuckerberg is an American media magnate, internet entrepreneur, and philanthropist.

He is known for co-founding Facebook, Inc. and serves as its chairman, chief executive officer, and controlling shareholder

However, Facebook faces headwinds amid growing calls from leading U.S lawmakers particularly California’s Democrat, Ro Khanna, buttressing on the social media giant unwinding its acquisitions of WhatsApp and Instagram and calling for aggressive antitrust enforcements and privacy regulations.

According to the lawmaker, there aren’t a lot of other robust social media platforms out there and thus, having WhatsApp and Instagram as separate entities would help foster healthy competition.
