People with privileged access should certainly use appropriate devices but I don't see how can you expect that they don't use the apps that everyone else uses?

Does this feed from the illusion that bureaucrats are different species? I find this very problematic. I'm sure however I can't prove it, but I think that this is a result of the propaganda that makes you think that the society is controlled by external forces referred as "Washington", "Brussels", "Moscow" or "Beijing" on which you have no power. Especially in the west the voting rates are comically low and people speak as if they don't have power on what's happening. Why do you do that? These are just regular people who grew up among you or your parents. They definitely need social media or whatever else everyone else needs.
- bluGill 4y agoIf you have a work device you should only install work related things on it. I don't care if you work for government or are a tiny company, keep work and personal things separate. I will sometimes let my boss call me on my personal phone - but if I got work related calls often I would expect my boss to pay for the phone.

So, outright limiting the work phone will likely result in using two phones and using the personal one for work, for convenience.
