Angela Merkel says Facebook is 'nice' like washing machine

Explore Business Standard

Angela Merkel recently shared her opinion on online privacy and jokingly said that Facebook is nice just like having a car or a decent washing machine.
The German Vice Chancellor said while speaking at a church in Stuttgart that Facebook is nice, but it's pure existence doesn't mean that one will automatically have great friends, the Independent has reported.
The 60-year-old German politician added that Facebook is a good option for contacting people, but it's anyday better to meet up with friends in real life to socialize.
