Well, that makes sense. There's no need for government employees to be leaking government data to a foreign government; and there is no way to use TikTok on a device without exposing all the things.
It would be better still if governments demanded open-source devices that can be meaningfully audited and verified to uphold good privacy standards, because there's no need for government employees to be leaking government data to domestic ads companies either.
