I would worry about them not liking the (true in my case at least) answer of "I don't have social media".
But there are people here that give their entire life story in their profile, I would say that, for those people, HN is social media.
Though, the Trump regime may see things differently.
Now that I think about it, not having mainstream social media or a smart phone would also put you on that list
This is not what TFA is about though.
TFA is about collecting this information through the ESTA for all visitors of countries part of the visa-waiver program, before the visitor even arrives at the border.
Of course this is all true to the extent that you don't mind spending hours or days in "secondary" since the government does have the right to submit you to inspection at the border. It is also limited by your willingness to pursue your rights, and the government's willingness to abide by court rulings.
I’m quite tired of the executive branch being able to trot out the “for national security” boilerplate argument with minimal data or record keeping to assess the efficacy of various systems and procedures.
I’ve been kept in some random airport security room for something like 2 hours while government officials try to sort out some accidental name collision. I got no useful explanation during or after. I am lucky I didn’t miss my connecting flight. I bet there is currently minimal incentive (if any) to reduce this citizen hassling. Requiring metrics on how much time squandering happens seems like a small step in the right direction.
Regular people give me weird looks when I claim not to use social media.
They will wave you trough the fast trail...
