None of the the employees who spoke to WIRED say they are actively using the app. “Have not looked at it,” a Department of Labor employee tells WIRED. “Will not look at it.”
The only sane approach to propaganda
Don't use the work phone as your personal phone
“Government devices typically include preinstalled apps that provide value to government employees’ day-to-day work.”

President Donald Trump’s approval rating has dropped to its lowest point during his two presidencies, according to a new poll.
A poll from the American Research Group, out Monday, found that approval for Trump stands at 30%, the lowest figure recorded across both of his terms. It is a 1 percentage point drop from May, when 31% of Americans were in support of the president’s performance.

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.

Yes... this is how Mobile Device Management works for every company. The company determines which apps you can have on your phone, and which are required. It's literally how work phones are handled by companies worldwide.
