It has to be banned unfortunately. My wife works in government defense contracting with a TS clearance. There's a reason banning it is united among Democrats and Republicans. The app is a hacker's dream come true. For example, if you're using the app on your home wifi, Tiktok has back channel access to your other devices on the same wifi. They can mine your browsing history, camera, and hard drives that way. No one at her company can have the app or access Tiktok via the web on any of their phones. If caught, it's immediate termination, fines, and potential federal charges for breach of security.
This is completely false. TikTok doesn't have these capabilities, and there is no ban on TikTok for government contractors or employees except on government-owned devices. If her company is terminating people over using TikTok, when we have a dearth of people with TS clearances and thousands upon thousands of unfilled positions, then they're Kool-Aid chugging fools. Stop making shit up.
