The British government has banned TikTok on government phones over security concerns.
“The security of sensitive government information must come first, so today we are banning this app on government devices. The use of other data-extracting apps will be kept under review,” Cabinet Office minister Oliver Dowden said in a statement.
The United States, Canada, Belgium, and the European Commission have already banned the app from official devices.
