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.

Brb making a catchall social media handle for undocumented folks
Brilliant!
America is a hellhole country. I feel sorry for any sane American living there and even more sorry for the racist agendas magas that somehow continue to support this rampant removal of human equality.
Fuck Trump Fuck the Trump administration
And fuck and single American they supports this. Monster. Then entire fucking lot of you.
I only had fb but I gave that up in 2016. The only things I have now are my old reddit account that I haven't used in a few years except to view occasionally but will not post, comment, or like anything. This Lemmy account is all I got and I am OK with that. It's insane that we are considered the weird ones.
Pretty sure this was already part of the ESTA visa application form that tourists need to fill in. Don't get me wrong; it's fucking bullshit as an entry or as a citizenship requirement. Just saying it's not a new form of Orwellian overreach for the US government.
It’s optional for an ESTA, you can just skip right over it. It sounds like they want to make it compulsory

about as likely as having any immigrants
...oh, that's probably the point.
So… what if one doesn’t use social media? Are they gonna believe that?
I used to have LinkedIn and now I only have this Lemmy account which isn’t directly tied to any of my personal details… Good luck linking that?
OK. It's realDonaldTrump. Don't look it up though, I'm a real maniac!
Don't have any. Although I also don't want to immigrate to the US
Don't have any? Detained!
“I don’t have any social media!” He announced on social media
Are web forums social media now?
When did they stop being social media?
They ALREADY do it while filling the ESTA form, or the DS-160 (to request any visa)... so, no news here...
