Obama’s Snapchat experience with his daughter sparks ridicule

President Barack Obama has disclosed that his youngest daughter recently mocked him on Snapchat.
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.
It is not the first time the president has discussed his 15-year-old’s online activities.
In July, he said she also tweets, leading several media outlets to try to identify her account. It remains secret.
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.
