The US has the personnel to go through 5 years of every tourists personal social media history? I think fucking not.

The beauty of AI.
Target an individual's account for keywords or even just vibes. See what you can fish out. Impose highly public harm to a handful of soft targets. Your people will love that.
FOX News would gleefully run footage of some Blue Hair teenager crying in an airport because she got flagged at TSA for posting "Fuck Trump" on Facebook.
And that's what this is really for. Not some air tight seal on travel, but a few repeatable meme moments you can blast to your hog base
i read that as “blast your hog to.”
and i thought - those maga assholes will jerk to anything.
Off topic ... Is cranking your hog masturbating?
Oh Jesus, I did not interpret it like that I just thought of loud motorcycle noises...

AI will just make shit up.
It will also have a quota to fill. flag 5000 turists a day or we'll remove 10% of your RAM

That's not how it works. AI has already categorized all accounts, they'll just lookup how people have been classified all these years.
Everyone is already in a database. NSA has scraped these sites already and tagged the data using Palantir’s tech. All they have to do is scan your passport and use your data and biometrics to pull a file up. The only thing they need is your permission to make it legal. If you want to enter you have to give permission.

Statistical word parrots will.
I wonder how long it'll be until a prompt injection "attack" is used in a major terrorist attack.

If your social media history doesn't block you from access to the US, what the fuck are you even playing at?
It's insane to think anyone would travel to the US as a tourist, or for work.
They think "it won't happen to us".

Why would you visit America right now? I live in a major tourist zone, and I'm here to ask foreign tourists to go somewhere else right now. There are lots of nice places in the world, where the government will appreciate you visiting and spending your money. America isn't one of them.
They're still expecting tourists to visit? How cute!
FIFA World Cup is going to be interesting
Literally Munich Olympics.
I know of more than enough people from my closest field (work, friends and family) that are not in the slightest disencouraged from this which is a fucking mistery.
This is like a man standing inside a fire saying "you're not allowed to step in this fire with me unless you hand over your information!"
Uhh no thanks, I'll stay out of the fire. Thanks. Nice try.
Good thing I've been avoiding the US ever since the Patriot Act.
By the way, highly recommend Canada as a vacation destination.
I wonder what theyll do, when you legitimately dont have any social media.

¡Sir, he doesn't have a b(utth * le)!
¡We'll have to make one!
They'll make you sign up for Truth Social. It also doubles as a torture method

Weren't they already doing this? I could have sworn some French researcher was denied entry over this months ago.

Destroy the economy some more, please. Thank you.
All this winning's getting hard guys hard
At this point, he's got to be a Russian agent. He's pretty much single-handedly dismantled the United States on every level.
To be fair the heritage foundation earned a little credit

I'm not visiting even if it's just for a connection flight
USA is the new China
Id also want the social media history of tourists who are crazy enough to come to the US.
America’s gonna need to kill their pedophile overlords before I think about stepping foot in there again.
What if you have no social media?
I deleted it all over five years ago, Reddit almost 3 years ago.
Other than Lemmy that is. That's all I got if that counts as social media.
I feel like they wouldn't believe me though and deny me. How do you prove you don't have something?
They legitimately find lack of social media to be a red flag.
Too bad i dont have any social media, so i will probably be flagged as a terrorist.
Imagine having the money to take a visit to the US and not using the money to visit someplace actually nice.
Yeah that's why I deleted my Facebook and Instagram accounts a couple weeks ago.
I deleted my Twitter account when Musk bought it.
I wonder if they check Mastodon though.
Although I won't be going back to the US for a long time anyway.
Do my Lemmy posts count? If not, I don't think I have anything in the last five years on the zuckerbergs
It would be interesting to see tourism numbers the last fre years
Create an account. And just post the same meme over and over and over. Don’t friend anyone. Don’t interact with any other posts.

Could we citizens of the 5 eyes countries gag on the boot any harder ?
Fuck we are pathetic at what we take from our governments.
