States all across the country have banned the app in recent months.

New York City is banning TikTok from city-owned devices and requiring agencies to remove the app within the next 30 days.

The directive issued Wednesday comes after a review by the NYC Cyber Command, which a city official said found that TikTok “posed a security threat to the city’s technical networks.” Starting immediately, city employees are barred from downloading or using the app and accessing TikTok’s website from any city-owned devices.

    1.) its usually a single persons job to do “social media outreach”, not most of the employees

    2.) People shouldn’t be using their personal devices to do government work, period.

    3.) slippery slope? why would someone use queer dating apps on their GOVERNMENT device? this is a stupid argument

    4.) This is about GOVERNMENT, not private business. You are conflating the two.
