There are no restrictions in Azerbaijan on services rendered by social networks like Skype, Facebook and WhatsApp, said Communication and High Technology Minister Ali Abbasov, adding that their services should be licensed.

In the information age, communication is easier than ever as programs like Skype, WhatsApp, Viber, Telegram, and others allow people to connect and chat with friends and relatives all over the world.

The modern world is producing new technologies and new ways in which to connect people around the globe. Today, one does not need to make expensive phone calls to another city or country to get in touch with family, friends or businesses.

Skype has resolved a security bug that made it possible for hackers to steal accounts, the popular internet phone service said.
