PA. SENATE UNANIMOUSLY VOTES TO BAN TIK-TOK ON STATE DEVICES

The Pennsylvania Senate has recently approved a bill to ban the social media app TikTok from all state-owned devices and networks. Sponsor Sen. Kristin Phillips-Hill says she introduced it due to concerns over security risks. The app may be involved with potential cyber-espionage and surveillance of government parties, in addition to collecting sensitive personal information. The bill now heads to the House of Representatives for consideration.
