Beijing, September 14 (Xinhua) U.S. Senator Lindsay Graham (Lindsey Graham) criticized social media companies such as Facebook and Twitter again on Tuesday. He wants to regulate these companies in new ways, and even consider using licenses to regulate them.

Graham revealed that he is working with several senators to develop a regulatory approach. At a hearing on Twitter loopholes, Graham said bluntly that social media companies have strong international power, but that there are few restrictions on what they can and cannot do. Graham is worried that FTC doesn't seem to have many tools to regulate social media companies.

Social media platforms are not licensed and others cannot sue them. "if you want to drive, you need a driver's license, and if you want to sell property, you need a license," Graham said. " What comments can be deleted by the platform? Graham wants to be bound by a set of rules, and he wants social platforms to take tougher measures against cybercrime and foreign intervention.

"if someone wants to remove your content, you should be able to appeal and have an appeal process," Graham said at the hearing. "
