How the fuck was TikTok allowed on any government device?

It's not, but the media needs another tiktok story for clicks

It's allowed on millions of government devices. There is a bill in congress to remove it from federal agency devices but that hasn't passed. Not sure where you got your info from but it's wrong.

You would think a government-issued device would be for government business only. I was offered a company phone when I got promoted but I wouldn’t have even been allowed to put my personal email on it or any games I play on my phone.

I work for the feds. It varies by department and context but I have seen some departments issue partitioned cellphones with a personal and a business side. The idea of the personal side is to have access to social media, but some apps aren't available. In this case, even if an employee had access to a partitioned device, we likely still wouldn't allow for TikTok.
