As of yesterday, the US State Department began asking those applying for a US visa to provide their participating social media usernames, as well as their previous email addresses. who also had their phone numbers. The new requirement, which could affect up to 15 million prospective travelers to the U.S., is part of a broad expansion of immigration enforcement under the president's administration .

So far all these extras , including e-mails, phone numbers and social media, only asked for those they felt needed extra screening, mostly for people who had traveled to areas with a high level of terrorist activity. According to the Associated Press approximately 65.000 applicants per year were included in this category.

It is now estimated that 710.000 entry applications for immigrants and 14 million visa applicants will be affected, including businessmen and students.

The new questions in the relevant visa application forms ask for usernames for all social media platforms that have been around for five years. The leaflets also ask for the telephone numbers and e-mail addresses used by applicants over the past five years, as well as the international travel they have made, whether they have been deported and whether their family members have been involved in terrorist activities. actions.

So if you want to travel to America and four years ago you wrote anti-American slogans on Facebook, even if you deleted them, even if you deleted the account, do not think that you will save it so easily. Big brother is watching.
