This is in an Irish online news publication this evening.
Reminder for everyone to check your online presence and purchases
Let’s not go there. 'tis a silly place.
Hahah, good luck! I don’t remember like 90% of my previous handles.
A few of my former Lemmy accounts even went down with their instances.
What a coincidence, that’s also the time frame I haven’t had any social media usernames
That won’t help you. If anyone arrives in the US and claims not to use social media, the customs officer may see that as very suspicious and reject entry - or worse. Been there, done that: US customs officers act on their own.
I thought my joke was obvious. Nevertheless, avoiding travel to the US is also important.
Go on corporate social media and say MAGA or no radioactive chicken for you 😤
Time to spin up a shit ton of accounts for porn.
the weirder the porn the better.
You might become friends with the US House speaker. The one that watches porn with his son
Didn’t know Bill Clinton had a son, or was a senator.
Didn’t know the HOUSE SPEAKER was a senator 🙄
sorry. i was thinking like gay furry porn. not like…incest porn… ew.
I bet even with that you find friends in the republican party
Well… I’m not on grinder, so it might be hard to actually find them,
Though it occurs to me they’ll use AI to sort through it, so I can’t torture some poor intern with an excess of porn.
It’s actually a good procedure for internal security. North Korea does the same and they don’t have any problems with people coming in (/s obviously)
North Korea doesn’t do this.
But Spinderella lies looks more and more like that NK Television Presenter Meme
This comes to us from a distant past when people were “known on the net” as Acid Burn or Neo.
By “coincidence” I have canceled all US-based social media over the last months. And: The food in France is better :-)
Sure, trumpisachode on twitter, instagram, and pinterest
This is fine.
Security theatre.
Much more likely to just be useful dirt they can keep on people and use it to deny or cancel their visa should they want or need to.
Irish people are very vocally sympathetic towards Palestine and other occupied territories because of our own history (and present).
“No more Irish J1 students” won’t go down well in Boston. “This guy is a Hamas supporter, deport/deny them!” will.
Do I have to provide this information to Palantir myself, or will the authorities do that for me?
No need. They have it all already.
It’s like taxes, they probably already know, but they make you fill out the form so they can either catch you out if you forget one, or add it to the list if you give one they didn’t know about.
One more reason not to go there. Now I have more than 100.
NotTheOnion really is just US politics now.
This is the dumb shit they’re doing instead of fixing housing or improving health care.
