    The precautions necessary to allow researchers on a college campus to access tiktok should be taken even if tiktok is banned, it’s basic cyber security.

    We are talking about college campuses here, not area 51. classified information or Ted cruz’s flight plans shouldn’t be a leak issue

      I am not sure how to interpret this sentence. How is allowing access to something that is banned cyber security?

        My point is that there is no increase in cyber security on a college campus by blocking tiktok, the difference security wise between blocking and allowing it is negligible.

        The ban is security theater.
