They can’t have the university expense a $300 Android device + a vpn to access TikTok? This solves, not having to use a government issued device that access government’s resources and networks, and being protected by using a vpn to create an onion route and preventing potential phone home.

If they cannot work around this, then I legitimately question the quality of “research” they would be conducting here.
