Can't get it off their....work phones.
Probably also can't get their work email and Teams and whatever else is on there off their work phones. Because they're work phones. If you're not on, put your work phone in a shoe box far from where you sit and hang out. faraday bag, even better.
Wired, c'mon. Only a genuine idiot would use a work phone as a personal phone. Anyone complaining about this gets what they deserve.
You're missing the point. This app is written by outside, for-profit companies who don't care about data security. And the app is so full of security holes that it means work email and work chat may be skimmed by people outside the organization.
This isn't a case of "don't use your work phone for personal stuff."
This is a case of e.g. "foreign criminal organizations can potentially steal American Social Security databases."
These people literally give away classified documents to friends as party favors. No one that isn't an idiot thinks they're doing anything other than undermining the US in every thing they do. It's literally part of Peter Thiel's goal, to pump and dump the whole country. It's been pump for too long, so they'll crash it, buy cheap, and then act like kings.
Not every government employee is a Trump stooge.
I wasn't talking about government employees. I was talking about the elected officials :)
