Every social media username? I figure most people are like me and lost most of them.
at this point, these companies would make a buck as lost accounts recovery services.
My US visa officer: what do you mean you did not have ‘social’ media accounts in 5 years? No, these weird sites don’t count. Underground terrorist? Straight to gulag.
Lol, now even the dumbest asshole should understand that they should cancle their US vacation…
i mean just say you don’t have social media it’s not like they can access private social media databases
They can in fact access private social media databases.
Of lemmy.zip?
Well, that’s one more reason to never come to the USA again

You can need a visa for tourism.
People want to travel to the USA still? Bizarre.
There are still countries even worse than the US.
And I think you’re underestimating the strength of an immigrant’s will to take risks to attempt to find a better life. Immigrants have suffered far worse throught US History.
I mean, just take a look at Wong Kim Ark. Dude didn’t just give up and leave, he stood his ground and fought though it, even though he had no idea if the US would even consider his case seriously.
And many people already have relatives in the US. So these are the risks they are willing to take to reunite. Unlike many westerners, who just completely give up on the slightest obstacles.
(Although I do think the much better option now is the EU, if they don’t have any relatives in the US already.)
Is there any way to practically check this? Surely just saying “i dont use the internet very much” is enough.
“i only use 4chan”
Would be less suspicious to just hold a fake instagram or something following some normie apolitical shit.
Suspicious, denied.
welcome to Autocracy ladies and gentlemen, sit back, grab some popcorn and pay attention to your neighbours, some might start dissappearing soon
dont threaten americans with what they want and voted for.
football selling out to Qatar who use slave labour and stone gay people to death, now US who hate foreigners and will detain you at random, and being in 2034 in Saudi Arabia, who also hate human rights is just the icing on the cake. I wanted to fly to the US for the world cup, but fuck that, fuck Trump and his cronies across the globe
This is kind of stupid. I don’t even remember social media tags I’ve used. Who would want to go through this shit to get into redneckville?
This was explained to me years ago. They don’t give a fuck about what you said. They want you to lie, in case they need to fuck you up. If for some reason they want to screw you, they’ll look for these uids, and if you hadn’t declared, they’ll slap perjury charges on you.
Exactly, they are talking about dozens of names. Who on earth would remember that, let alone want to share it.
I haven’t get my #viss, but since last year I was thinking about it. With these news and for what you see from the #USA, there is no way that I’ll throw myself into that humilliation
I guess we can finally get clarification on whether or not forums are social media or not.
I legitimately do not, and have never had, any of the usual social media. This lemm.ee account is the only one I have, and that’s closing down soon.
However I would also never visit the us. So it’s all a win/win for me.

“Well that can’t be right. Highly suspicious. What do you have to hide?”
“What do you have to hide?”
Grizzly murders. Loads of them!!
…
…J/k. It’s my privacy. All those horrific murders were really easy to get away with, keeping my privacy private however…
Imagine handing over a Hexbear username, lol
Good thing I delete that crap 10+ years ago. Enjoy the shitty data and memes!
Same, but it worries me that now I look like I’m hiding something.
I guess technically I am hiding something: It’s disdain. Disdain for shitty social media is what I’m hiding.
