Uhhhh, it’s more than their social media. The new proposal would make it “mandatory” for ESTA applicants to provide US authorities with access to five years of their social media activity on platforms such as Instagram, TikTok and X. Visitors will also be required to provide information on what US authorities dub “high-value data fields,” meaning all of their phone numbers over the past five years and all of their e-mail addresses over the past 10. Moreover, they will be forced to provide personal details on family members as well as provide their own biometric data. The proposal was published in the Federal Register on Tuesday, meaning that it will be open for public comment for 60 days, at which point it will become law unless challenged in court.

Checks SimpleLogin account… 230 email aliases to date… gg, I might need a few more pages to note all of those.

Plus, how tf are they going to know if you’re telling them about everything? This will just make people not visit.

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?

So do you just go to jail straight away if you miss listing one of those, because you lied on a federal form? 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.
