Are you sure that the head of the executive branch does not have authority to ban federal employees from using an app which potentially poses a national security threat? I don't think its so clear cut. In any case its hardly the first time that a president made a potentially unconditional to be ruled upon by courts later.

>have authority to ban federal employees from using an app Not sure what we're talking about at this point. Trump's executive orders about tiktok that were thrown out of court were something different. Trump or just the department who owns a given device can of course say "don't put X on government phones" and so on, but that's way different than what Trump tried and failed to do with tiktok.
