So an applicant with dangerous people in their life, maybe an abusive family member or a stalker ex, is forced to expose their accounts they would otherwise keep private. That's the first bad-case scenario that comes to mind, I'm sure there are more.
I propose a new rule - if so for me, then so for thee. Anything imposed on legal applicants is also imposed on the lawmakers who put it in place.
applicants for several kinds of student visas would be required to "adjust the privacy settings on all of their personal social media accounts to 'public'
They are so ridiculous.
But ofc it's not going to happen. They can lick my.
Ah damn, I was a state actor who was going to smuggle in sleeper agents to perform sabotage and espionage in the US, but I can't figure out how to create a fake social media profile. I admit defeat.
At least you're not a teenager that has ever expressed any sympathy for Palestinians. Those are the real threat.
What the hell, I went to check the official website for my embassy and this is true??
Yep, here's a US government source.
Yet another reason not to study there. Ideological screening, what a joke.
make social media private
say "i don't have social media"
problem solved.
- gets rejected at the border because officer doesn't believe person doesn't have social media accounts
- ???
- no profit
I imagine this is what will happen even though it's absurd. Like it's actively going to become detrimental to not be trackable via an online presence connected to your identity because there are people who are mad that you won't let them invade your privacy. Lol
Trash country continues circling the drain.
Remember folks, always vote against Republicans in the most likely manner to prevent them from having any level of power.
@DarkFuture@lemmy.world
@return2ozma@lemmy.world That's a pretty short sighted view considering just ~150 years ago the Democrats were the party against abolishing slavery. Times change, but American politics really don't.
Limiting the choice to the lesser of two evils only benefits one of the classes in the real fight. As Alaska (since 2022) and NYC (this week) have shown, RCV allows voters to select who they really want to lead regardless of whether polls say they are "wasting" their vote.
This will be a boon for stalkers.
Are kids living under helicopter parents that want them to study abroad even allowed to have a social media account by the parents?
*social media accounts that they know of
I question this, and really, their availability.
With prep-time, any prosecutor and crew could dig up every tiny detail about you in about a week, including every single site any related IP addresses to you have been to and how much time you spend there and all of your dns queries.
But here, on the spot. "You tell us".
Their lack of effort is correlated to the amount of spite they have for any individual person. It's like using a magnifying glass. If they actually gave a shit, they wouldn't have to ask.
Delete all social media problem solved
Can't proved they have been deleted and can't prove you don't have more.
Problem created.
Brain drain away!
Most based article from a Libertarian news site I've ever read.
And what if I have Instagram but I don't publish anything on it? lol
