Locked. No further comments permitted.US now seeking social media details from all visa applicants usernames, previous email addresses etc

Tags: LA, Random (All tags)

The Trump administration and the US government is are now requiring all new visa applicants that are trying to come to the US to give the government five years of their past "social media identifiers'. Meaning all of their past social media usernames, previous email addresses and phone numbers. This is part of the vast expansion of the Trump administration's enhanced screening of potential immigrants and visitors.

If they can do this to people trying to enter the US its only a matter of time that this information will be required here in the US for government related things. Like filling out a passport application, applying for government benefits or even maybe filing your taxes.

Can you imagine the treasure trove of information that would be uncovered if that info was required here on HX. We may find out that this site only actually has like 200 real members lol

OP:

non ad alterum

One does not necessarily lead to the other. But nice try.

We know you hate Trump. And Republicans. Old news Not fake news.

Most of us see it as whining. Ya know. Cause you know there is not a damn thing you can do about it and have 6 more years of whining.

Cheers!

All applicants. They have allegedly been doing it for "questionable" applicants previously.

If they chose to do the same to American's seeking government assistant, I am down for that. You want my money I pay every couple weeks? I know want to know what stupid shit you do. You want free shit? Cough up the info. So many would be denied. Deservedly.

All about accountability. We know the millenials lack it. Shit you do in your life will dictate shit that happens in your life.

Bottom line, if you are a fuck up, you are a fuck up. If you are stupid enough to blast your "fucked-up-edness" to the world, deal with your choices. And the consequences.

This is common sense shit. Not new info. Standard operating procedures.

A danger is that the surveillance state could turn into something else. The government seems to be picking off groups of people one by one. Starts with the most vulnerable. It may not end there.

The most vulnerable being?

I stand by my statement. We have laws. Abide by them. Or deal with the consequences. You don't like em? Stand up and get them changed. I am well aware how easy that sounds. And am well aware of hard it is. But, that is what we are about.

And the free shit is supposed to temporary. To get you back on your feet. Not for you to live by for eternity. You are not entitled. You do not deserve shit you did not work for.

Common sense. SOP.

It has to do with why people would have a problem submitting that info. What seems to be the issue with us checking out people who want in to the US? I for one like the idea of having a better idea if the person is a friggin whackadoodle. Don't you? Isn't more info better then less?

If they got nothing to hide, no problems.

The Patriot Act only made legal what the government had been doing illegally for a long time.

Edward Snowden's revelations gave the American People an idea of how much further the government had went than what was legal under the Patriot Act.

He just has so much disdain he feels the need to vent to as many people who will listen. Unfortunately for him, this site is the only place that people might listen.

But, instead of listening, he was thwarted!

haha. Mostly kidding. This is just killing time while I continue my task at hand.

"A danger is that the surveillance state could turn into something else. The government seems to be picking off groups of people one by one. Starts with the most vulnerable. It may not end there."

AND with Tramp and Co. the arbiters of who is OK and who is "bad" things would probably go down the slippery slope reeeeeeeally quickly (as history shows). I'm not sure my problem is with the intent, my problem is more with the implementation now a days in this polarized climate. (And just wait til we get into a real war and have to decide who we send to the internment camps again.)

Its nobody fuckin business what your usernames are, what sites you visit, your emails or what your phone numbers have been for the past 5 years. They have the right to ask you if they want and you should have the right to leave that blank. Its your right to privacy.
The internet was built with people having the right to be anonymous.
Who the fuck in their right mind is going on HX on a job application as one of the social media sites they visit and their screen name is Fubar??
The next thing you know the government will make your IP number be your SS number so they can have a record to see everywhere you go. I guess Trump will just add some shit like that as an addendum to the Patriot Act to please his base.

So, dude, now that you know Trump is just enforcing the law of the land, are you still blaming him?

Guessing yes, since I have perused a few of your other blogs.

No need to answer. Guessing you are over this blog or just over the fact your blog did not fulfill what you were seeking.

TheRealGuido this blog is not attempting to fulfill anything about Trump. Its just pointing out the state of the nation and how fucked up some things seem to be nowadays. Many of our rights seem to be eroding. Our privacy, the abortion law/right etc.....

Btw to answer your question YES me and 3/4 of this country think Trump is an unqualified asshole crook that should never ever been elected President of the United States. He is an entertainer who is totally and completely fucking up our country at home and abroad. He is not a leader he is joker and a self centered prick who only cares about how things affect him personally. He only care slightly about his base who he said would vote for him "even if he shot some on 5th Ave" because he needs them to vote for him again n 2020 so he doesn't go to jail.

Tried to lock the blog? Tsk tsk.

You know damn well your intention was to bash Trump. Don't even deny it.

3/4 think he is that? You need to read other news sources. But what is really going to fuck with you is when He still wins. Cause you and your buddies are clueless. 100% clueless.

All they want to do is get him out of office. Ain't gonna happen. And we all know it. Then, since they did not mount any offense, they will get slaughtered next election.

Get used to it. You got 5+ more years of agony. I am going to subscribe to you to enjoy the show.
