Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

We dont live in a Democracy anymore. This is factually Nazi Shit.
Encrypt everything. Consider carrying your computer with a dummy account on it, and all your actual stuff on NextCloud or similar. Then reload your computer after you get thru security. I would not even think of carrying anything incriminating thru security. Who needs the hassle?
Or better yet- don't travel to the US.
I'm talking about travel anywhere, but especially the US. Sometimes one has to go somewhere for good reason, and mitigation of risk is needed.
Yes, I would consider getting myself a cheap phone in a clean state to travel with, and only logging into accounts after crossing into my destination country. But I'd rather just avoid the USA.
"incriminating" to be clear here, criticism of a political person should not cause you to be denied entry. That's fucking insane. On the other hand, yes. Everything has to be encrypted, locked, and def have a dummy OS. I'm going to need to set some up.
Fedora makes full drive encryption stupid easy during initial install. I try to keep a habit of backing up my data and never having a computer in a state that i cant easily wipe and reload the OS; Games and non-system-required data on a separate physical drive, not a partition.
Assume microsoft has a copy of bitlocker keys if using Windows, they are heavily in bed with the US government and will sell you out for a piece of chewing gum.
