I couldn’t tell you every single “social media” account I’ve made over the years as various startups failed after I tried them.
I definitely couldn’t get all my family’s information, even if constrained to just immediate family.
I bet Palantir and three letter agencies have that information though, so this will be another lever they can use to selectively enforce punishment on their enemy of the day.
Also, given how much inaccurate information is on the internet, including AI hallucinations and people with similar names, there is a chance that they have wrong information about you. And since you can't correct them, or tell them about this false information that you don't know about, so you are basically banned from ever visiting.
The analogy is kind of striking, when you think about it.
It's an old one:
"Damn it feels good to be a gangsta Gettin' voted into the White House Everything lookin' good to the people of the world But the Mafia family is my boss "
Getto Boys, Office Space soundtrack
As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a gangster. To me, being a gangster was better than being President of the United States.
We ran everything. We paid off cops. We paid off lawyers. We paid off judges. Everybody had their hands out. Everything was for the taking.
If we wanted something, we just took it. If anyone complained twice they got hit so bad, believe me, they never complained again.
They even shot Tommy in the face so his mother couldn't give him an open coffin at the funeral.
Probably applies to “made men”
And that’s no guarantee. Look at Billy Batts.
Somehow I was surprised beyond my wildest guess what they would be asking people to do.
I want people to visit the U.S., but if they require that they submit all of this data, I expect that they all protest by not visiting or even coming here for work.
There are just so many terrible ideas that come from this administration that I think that they should try to harness the power all of those bad ideas in a infinite idiocy power plant to power the world for all generations to come.
You can easily accumulate hundreds of unique email addresses this way.
Do they really expect you to input 500+ email addresses?
a person can't be "illegal" and immigration is a civil issue, not criminal...
