As the city of Ottawa and Ontario government move to ban TikTok from all work devices over security concerns, an Ottawa-area MPP deleted her TikTok account on Friday.
Meantime, Ottawa police say all officers and staff were directed to remove the social media app from work and personal devices three months ago.
"TikTok is a personal account, and I only use it on my personal phone. I've gotten rid of my TikTok account for now. But it's not something that I want to do. It's something that as a politician, I have to do," Ghamari said. She had grown her account to 282,000 TikTok followers. The ban also extends to any personal phones that access work-related applications. While access to TikTok through a web browser on a computer or laptop has not been banned, technology analyst Carmi Levy suggests that a broader ban could be forthcoming.
