New York City bans TikTok on government-owned devices over security concerns

The Hindu  

New York City on Wednesday banned TikTok on government-owned devices, citing security concerns, joining a number of U.S. cities and states that have put such restrictions on the short video sharing app. TikTok "posed a security threat to the city's technical networks," the administration of New York City Mayor Eric Adams said in a statement. New York City agencies are required to remove the app within 30 days and employees will lose access to the app and its website on city-owned devices and networks. Wray said in March that China's government could use TikTok to control software on millions of devices and drive narratives to divide Americans, adding the app "screams" of national security concerns.
