The Trump administration wants to force foreign visitors to give border agents access to their social media accounts before they are allowed into the country. The proposal applies to all visa-free travelers.
For real, there really is no way for them to know for sure.
Also, I just remembered Apple has throwaway emails built in now, nobody will think to list those. So do you just go to jail straight away if you miss listing one of those, because you lied on a federal form?
Nah I don’t believe so, the vast majority of the people doesn’t really care about privacy at all and they will gladly provide all the “required” information just to enter in the country. I guess they already know a lot of information about you (google account, biometric data in phones, GPS location, frecuent used apps…) and they just want you to provide even more information and tag you as an danger if you don’t answer exactly what they know about you.
Checks SimpleLogin account… 230 email aliases to date… gg, I might need a few more pages to note all of those.
That looks suspicious and a lot of work, let’s just send you to and ICE detention facility until we decide what to do with you.
Can’t argue with that logic. I’ll report to my nearest border crossing if/when this passes to make things easier for everyone.
The Fourth Reich thanks you for your understanding!
Plus, how tf are they going to know if you’re telling them about everything? This will just make people not visit.

Unfortunately, that probably depends on what color you are. They have taken a few whities, but that was probably just for show.
Our country isn’t really safe to visit right now, please come back if/when we’re better. Most Americans are sorry about this.
Really hope for a positive outcome. I would love to go visit my happy place on the Oregon coast again some day!
