I would guess the Canadian government employ people to manage social media for various departments. They may use TikTok, both to view content to understand for research or to post in order to promote their services/role/existance. Similarly I might imagine they have Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and other apps which facilitate spreading information.

I think generally you don't get a choice when it comes to DOCSIS equipment. You can't just connect up your own (or at least no to Virgin Media's network)

I'd imagine that's the result of both somewhat dishonest advertising and scams that are being run by companies that advertised themselves as technical support or "Fix Your PC" companies. Like the "I'm calling from Microsoft" scam - http://www.howtogeek.com/180514/the-%E2%80%9Ctech-support%E2...

Generally not by default, but that can vary by manufacturer. You can just download one of the many available from the Play Store.

Try it using an IPv6 address ;)
