“To facilitate this vetting, all applicants for F, M and J non-immigrant visas will be asked to adjust the privacy settings on all their social media profiles to ‘public’”, the official said. “The enhanced social media vetting will ensure we are properly screening every single person attempting to visit our country.”

    Alternatively, they’ll have a “public facing” social media, and a real one.

      yeah, I can see not having a social media profile at all being treated as tantamount to sedition before too long

      I’m so happy that I was able to skip all that stuff.

      I stoped using my mainstream social media around the years ago.

      I kept the profiles, and I think it is good as I can just share them if I’m ever required to.
