> The app has already been banned on state-issued devices in 28 states and is facing a blanket ban across all federal employees that would prohibit them from using or downloading TikTok on government-owned devices.

Is it just me, or does this sound completely reasonable and not at all newsworthy? Why were government employees, with government-owned devices, allowed to install any third party apps (much less social media apps) to begin with?

I don't need any security clearance for my job yet my employer MDM-managed device only allows about 10 work-approved apps to be installed.
