Student visa applicants will now be forced to make their social media accounts public

Are kids living under helicopter parents that want them to study abroad even allowed to have a social media account by the parents?

Trash country continues circling the drain.
Remember folks, always vote against Republicans in the most likely manner to prevent them from having any level of power.
@return2ozma@lemmy.world That's a pretty short sighted view considering just ~150 years ago the Democrats were the party against abolishing slavery. Times change, but American politics really don't.
Limiting the choice to the lesser of two evils only benefits one of the classes in the real fight. As Alaska (since 2022) and NYC (this week) have shown, RCV allows voters to select who they really want to lead regardless of whether polls say they are "wasting" their vote.

This will be a boon for stalkers.

Ah damn, I was a state actor who was going to smuggle in sleeper agents to perform sabotage and espionage in the US, but I can't figure out how to create a fake social media profile. I admit defeat.
At least you're not a teenager that has ever expressed any sympathy for Palestinians. Those are the real threat.

They say they will find those "with AI". And they will, for true or for false, because they only want another weapon to use against the "undesirables".

make social media private
say "i don't have social media"
problem solved.
That is a fucking terrible idea. If they later find it, they'll lock you up and maybe later throw you out. The financial risk makes no sense.

So an applicant with dangerous people in their life, maybe an abusive family member or a stalker ex, is forced to expose their accounts they would otherwise keep private. That's the first bad-case scenario that comes to mind, I'm sure there are more.
I propose a new rule - if so for me, then so for thee. Anything imposed on legal applicants is also imposed on the lawmakers who put it in place.
There is no rule against deleting accounts, my friend.

If you say that you have no social media accounts they will probably assume you're lying and deny you.
Actually they ask for the last five years, deleted or not.

applicants for several kinds of student visas would be required to "adjust the privacy settings on all of their personal social media accounts to 'public'
They are so ridiculous.
But ofc it's not going to happen. They can lick my.
It already is happening. Source: a person getting a visa now-ish.

But one shouldn't have to.

Find what?
I haven't had "traditional" social media for years and what I did have has since been deleted, or so I'm told.

It’s because the morons running the country don’t think that constitutional freedoms apply to non-citizens. No freedom of speech if your speech hurts their feelings. Fuckin aye

There are plenty of schools in Europe. There is no reason for essentially the equivalent of 1930s Jewish people to study in essentially Hitler's Germany in the 30s right when the smarter people were getting out.

And how long before that applies to citizens too? If Free Speech and Free Expression on the whole aren't dead yet, they've got a foot in the grave

You're not wrong, but most of us don't have the benefit of ranked choice in our jurisdictions. Until we can get that, I'll continue to vote against the greater evil.
I dream of being able to one day vote for something instead of being forced to vote against something.
