"from government devices" seems important to the title
Edit: also, this article simply re-reports a Verge article: https://www.theverge.com/2023/8/16/23834579/nyc-tiktok-ban-new-york-china-surveillance-spy https://www.theverge.com/2023/8/16/23834579/nyc-tiktok-ban-n... Props to Engadget for citing their source, but just think that the Verge deserves that shout-out here too.
- toomuchtodo 3y agoBanning non business critical apps from corp/org devices is just good security hygiene. Would probably not even be PR if the MDM policy was pushed and when people asked, IT said "no non business apps."
- zffr 3y agoYeah, this seems completely reasonable IMO.
- datadrivenangel 3y agoGovernment devices should be boring, so I hope they also ban facebook.
- bsimpson 3y agoThe Verge is a better source and has a more accurate title.
- hgsgm 3y agoThats the onvious interpretation, clued by the word "employees". Headlines don't include every bit of context.
- elicash 3y agoHere they just rewrote a Verge article titled "NYC bans TikTok on city-owned devices" and made it inaccurate. Why they would go out of their way to make the headline they copied from wrong and also slightly LONGER is super weird.
