Jurisdiction after jurisdiction is waking up to the danger posed by China.
Ontario has become the latest jurisdiction to ban TikTok from government devices.
Prabmeet Sarkaria – Ontario President of the Treasury Board – made the announcement:
“Our government takes the safety, privacy, and security of the people of Ontario extremely seriously.
That’s why, effective immediately, the TikTok app will no longer be permitted on Ontario government-issued devices.
Please see my statement below:”
