The Customs and Border Protection proposal would apply even to countries that don’t require visas to enter.
The Trump administration plans to require all foreign tourists to provide their social media histories from the last five years to enter the country, according to a notice published Tuesday in the Federal Register.
The data would be “mandatory” for new entrants to the U.S., regardless of whether they are entering from countries that require visas, according to the notice from Customs and Border Protection.
Residents of the United Kingdom and Germany are among the countries from which visitors do not require visas to visit the U.S., which, according to the notice, could add an extra hurdle for travelers. British citizens and people of other waived countries currently can complete “Electronic System for Travel Authorizations” in lieu of obtaining visas.
All part of the Never Travel to the United States campaign.
There’s nothing but threats to your basic human rights there. Ask the locals.
Really striving for the most efficient way to kill the tourism industry, huh?
Part of the plan.
Nothing they can do can make me want to go there even less.
Hah jokes on you. I deleted every trace of social media posts.
What are foreign tourists?
*asking for a vacation home rental owner in Florida who mainly hosted Canadians and Germans in the past decades.
I can’t be bothered to fact check but my teacher once said that anyone who left 20 km from their residence are technically tourists.
Tourists from outside of the US.
NGL US are literally looking like North Korea nowadays. ;D
Does Reddit/Lemmy count as social media? Why tf does Trump need to know which news articles I clicked on?
