@briankrebs yup, today's new improved dropping of the iron curtain will further isolate the typical us citizen from world opinion making them more malleable come tomorrow's hammer

@briankrebs
And what happens if you a) don't have a phone and/or b) don't have a social media presence?

[bzdev@fosstodon.org]

@briankrebs It's crazy. I dumped Twitter/X some time ago for being too toxic & don't remember when exactly. I kept an account active just so someone couldn't take my user name and impersonate me, but at this point, they might not even let me log in. I don't remember my Twitter user name..
Also, what about subaddresses: e.g, NAME+TAG@example.com. I'll use those to simplify sorting and so I can tell if some web site has been compromised or is selling my address. Can't remember all the tags.

@DelilahTech 1) you have, are lying and are detained for further investigation and charges (lying to a federal agent, obstruction of a federal investigation, etc.), sent to a concentration camp awaiting removal;
2) you really don't have them, and your entry in the USA is refused and you are sent to a concentration camp awaiting removal.

Either way, your belongings are confiscated, your prints are taken, your DNA is "sourced" (ask me how I, and European lawyer, know about it) and they do whatever else they think is within their rights to do to an "alien" (non-US citizen).

Just don't go to the US and don't allow your family and friends to go either. The FIFA WC and the Olympic Games aren't that big of a deal.

@briankrebs

Time to short US travel industry stocks...

No one will come to the US for pleasure trips anymore.

Buh-bye, Disney revenue from EU Easter holiday travelers.

See ya, US hotel chain revenue in major tourist cities.

Airlines? Flights to Europe are not full these days, because no one is coming FROM Europe. But sure Donny, let's pour halon on that fire....

If you don't understand how anything works, you'll screw things up when you try to change things.

#tourism #travel

@gavinisdie @briankrebs And nothing on what to include to make sure your comment is registered to the right thing? I haven't seen anything on how to do this while searching either.

[gavinisdie@masto.ai]

@jackemled @briankrebs i also saw nothing on how to word it, so i wrote about how it is wrong and what damage it will do

[briankrebs@infosec.exchange]

@jackemled @gavinisdie You should consult the Federal Register link in the original post.

@briankrebs I’m noping out hard on visiting the USA for the forseeable future.

[petermlittle@mas.to]

@briankrebs Well not that I'd ever visit the ,FSA, but it will put millions of people off and will kill the tourist industry and businesses visits stone dead

[mavu@mastodon.social]

@briankrebs good, should reduce emissions from long distance flights to the USA by a good percentage long term.
