Apparently when the spokesman for Germany’s Federal Office for Information Security, Matthias Gaertner said that Google’s new browser “should not be utilized for general use”, he didn’t really mean it. 

It seems he also never meant to say that his office had issued an official warning against Chrome. 

Both comments came out in a British press article, only later to be followed up by further comments from Matthais Gaertner that his statements were taken out of context. 

Regardless of what was reported, Mr. Gaertner clarified to the Associate Press that he meant to express his question on why Chrome was released as a beta product and also to express his interest in exploring the new features in Chrome. 

Sounds like someone with a PR background helped him understand and express his opinion properly. Perhaps clarity came to them when Google Germany came forward to say that Chrome is safe and stable.
