Screen this fuck face: Trump is the dumbest president in the History of the US. Even Bush had the vision of employing Cheney.
I thought he was opposed to punishing people for things said online?
How would they even know unless you have your picture on your social media account and use your actual name as it appears in your passport?
I work for a US company (I’m uk) which means traveling to the states every quarter for work to train clients.
I’ve been explicitly told each time to make sure I either wipe my phone, or delete ALL social media apps from it before arriving at the airport. Utter bonkers
Outside of business trips, who in their right mind wants to visit the U.S anymore? They’ve pretty much shat the bed when it comes to the soft power they’d generated over the years.
People will just take a cheap burner smartphone to the US, right?
But it’s the UK that has a problem with freedom of speech, right???
Lucky I’m not planning on visiting the good ole US of A…anytime.
Last time I go to the US ever then. No wonder Vegas is dying.
And he has the fucking nerve to say that Europe is anti free speech!
As a Brit I for one welcome your new orange overlord.
I don’t have any non anonymous social media and Reddit is attached to a throwaway that I wouldn’t give them.
So would I be refused entry because they couldn’t find pictures of a meal that I ate 4.5 years ago?
Not that I would go to America anyway.
Fascist is like fascist does!
I won’t be visiting the USA anytime soon. I can’t stand the cesspit MAGAt Trump administration ruiling like far right dictators…!
That’s fine. Wasn’t planning on visiting North ~~Korea~~ America anytime soon anyway
Fuck this senile old sack of shit. He looks like he stinks of piss.
You just tick the option to say you dont have social media. Simple
What could possibly go wrong?
I thought free speech was a human right. That’s what the rightwingers kept telling me.
Apparently around 4m people form the UK visit the US every year, so on average around 11k every day. I assuming it would be spot checks but I have a hard time working out how this would even work. Are they going to check my 66 year old parents’ phones, or are they only targeting younger people? What about if you wear a MAGA hat, do you get a free pass?
Do I have anything to declare? “Only my lack of genius!”
Trump can suck my dick and balls, then Vance can eat my ass. I hope they enjoy screening this lmao.
Cool. So whats gonna stop rivals from making fake profiles to sabotage each other when they know when the target is going to the US?
>As well as the collection of social media information, the new document proposes the gathering of an applicant’s telephone numbers and email addresses used over the last five and 10 years respectively, and more information about their family members.
>The state department said it will conduct “online presence” reviews for applicants and their dependents, and that privacy settings on all social media profiles must be made “public” so this screening can take place.
Sweet Jesus and the wee donkey. Talk about intrusive 😨
Not like I plan on traveling to that cesspit anyway, placed is a midden of left and right cunts.
Why would you want to go there? I mean seriously, Ive cancelled business trips and conference sponsorship over there. Im avoiding it like any third world country
Far nicer places to visit in the UK and Europe before I even think of going to America.
And it’s us that apparently have problems with free speech. Fuck this asshole
