President Barack Obama has disclosed that his youngest daughter recently mocked him on Snapchat.<\/p>\n

The US leader said Sasha had recorded him discussing the social network at a family dinner and then quietly posted a reaction to her friends.<\/p>\n

It is not the first time the president has discussed his 15-year-old’s online activities.<\/p>\n

In July, he said she also tweets, leading several media outlets to try to identify her account.<\/p>\n

It remains secret.<\/p>\n

Likewise a copy of the described Snapchat post has not been made public. Messages posted to the app are designed to disappear after being viewed or within a short period of time, but there are ways to circumvent the restrictions.<\/p>\n

President Obama recounted the latest event on Monday’s edition of the Jimmy Kimmel Live TV show.<\/p>\n

“Sasha gave me instructions on Snapchat,” he said.<\/p>\n

“One night at dinner we’re sitting there, and I had read that Snapchat was becoming really popular among her age cohort. So, I said: ‘So, tell me about Snapchat.’<\/p>\n

“So, she starts explaining stuff – you can make little faces on your picture, and this and that and the other.<\/p>\n

“And at the end of it, Michelle and I are sitting there. And I said: ‘Isn’t this interesting?’<\/p>\n

“And I started talking to Michelle about the implications of social media and what all this means.<\/p>\n

“[And I] come to find out she was recording us the whole time, and then sent to her friends afterwards: ‘This is my dad lecturing us on the meaning of social media.’<\/p>\n

“And she took a picture of herself sort of looking bored.”<\/p>\n

The president added that his wife – who joined Snapchat in June – and his eldest daughter Malia had “loved” the post.<\/p>\n

The show’s host, Jimmy Kimmel, joked that the event represented a security breach.<\/p>\n

Email leaks<\/strong><\/p>\n

The president also mentioned that his own iPhone was limited to receiving emails and browsing the internet, and would not take photos, play music or make calls.<\/p>\n

“My rule has been throughout my presidency, that I assume that someday, some time, somebody will read this email,” he said.<\/p>\n

“So, I don’t send any email that at some point won’t be on the front page of the newspapers.”<\/p>\n

\"PresidentMany of the features of the president’s iPhone are blocked<\/span><\/figure>\n

Hillary Clinton – who is campaigning to be the next commander-in-chief – has been beset by a scandal over leaked emails, while her rival Donald Trump has been accused of using outdated software on his company’s email servers.<\/p>\n

President Obama also said that he expected technology to preoccupy his successor.<\/p>\n

“One of the biggest challenges… is going to be: how do we continue to get all the benefits of being in cyberspace but protect our finances, protect our privacy?<\/p>\n

“How do we balance issues of security? Because people expect the government to monitor this enough to protect them from bad guys.<\/p>\n

“But they worry that if government is in there too much, then who is going to protect them from government?<\/p>\n

“This is going to be a big debate that we’re going to have for a long time.”<\/p>\n
