Nepal Police warns against VPN use for banned TikTok



KATHMANDU: The Nepal Police have urged users not to employ VPN and DNS platforms for accessing the government-banned social site, TikTok.

The police caution people against using illegal and unsafe VPN and DNS platforms, as it may result in the theft and loss of their secret and sensitive data.

It may be noted that the Nepal government on November 13 had decided to completely ban the operations of the social site TikTok. The Nepal Police have called on users not to use unlawful and unsafe platforms such as VPN and DNS.

The Nepal Police Cyber Security Bureau emphasized the sensitivity of the issue, especially as incidents of cybercrime have been increasing of late.
