@randahl can you imagine pur country is going to share our means of logging in to government sites with an American company soon? A company that is required by American law to share our most personal details with the government there!
@randahl Non ho mai avuto nessun desiderio di andarci, soprattutto adesso.

From what I see on the EFF site about this, it seems to apply primarily to students?
"The State Department recently announced an unprecedented new requirement that applicants for student and exchange visas must set all social media accounts to “public”

@randahl and if you do have a public profile, particularly if you post on the #Fediverse, they are likely to deny you entry anyway once they find out how much you detest Trump and his billionaire friends and are not afraid to say so.
@randahl and have been for almost a Year. But who wnats to come to the US?
@randahl They really don't want anyone to visit the worldcup, right? 😂
(And yes, I'm perfectly aware that the problem is waaaay bigger.)
@randahl i always wonder what happens if you just don’t have one, or at least not have one that anyone can find
@randahl It‘s getting even more ridiculous day by day. Unbelievable.
@randahl
I taught my kid to keep a public, "real name" profile on the big social media services, and also a pseudonym account when they want to talk about more politically "problematic" things. I emphasized this again when they began doing... "organizing." And they immediately said, "Of course, we all have Signal accounts, and I delete Signal when crossing the border." (Like most Canadians, we live near the US border)
@randahl
Fucking Nazi assrimmers.
Trump and Co..scared of criticism.
@randahl "but if you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear?"
Everybody's got something to hide.
@randahl It's not as if anything you might post on social media in your private life would make you guilty in any way.
@randahl "I don't HAVE an instagram account."
"Sure you don't sir. This way, please."
so, any of his cabinet who has a private profile on social media can be arrested or kicked off his job? Interesting. RELEASE ALL OF THE FILES & LET THE CHIPS FALL WHERE THEY MAY.
