Some United States universities are banning TikTok at their respective campuses. You might be asking why such a move, the universities are concerned that social media platforms are dangerous to youth’s mental health.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott ordered the state agencies to ban the App from government devices.
“The university is taking these important steps to eliminate risks to the information contained in the university’s network and to our critical infrastructure,” University of Texas Advisor to the President for Technology Strategy Jeff Neyland.
“As outlined in the governor’s directive, TikTok harvests vast amounts of data from its users’ devices — including when, where and how they conduct internet activity — and offers this trove of potentially sensitive information to the Chinese government.”
These idiots don’t know that the more the ban, the more the kids will flock to the social media platform.
