A pity, I'd have liked to visit Scotland again. Perhaps it's just me, but when a country decides to treat me like a criminal suspect instead of a welcomed visitor I just don't want to go there anymore.
yes, but some countries have a pretty streamlined process.
Canada, for exemple. They asks you for your name, passport number, credit card number, if you have anything specific to mention. Then you instantly received an email with your ETA
On the other hand, countries like the USA make it weird. They infamously ask you if you were involved in the 3rd Reich, and they want your social media accounts.
The latter is probably to know if you're an American&Trump loving tourist, or if you keep saying that Canada is better. Idk what else they can get out of this.
oh, and they ask you if you have a mental health disorder; They probably don't want autistic tourists either.
it just makes me want to open a twitter account to post all the dad jokes and questionable p0rn I can, or anime reviews and fan theories, just to proudly provide the link on the ESTA form. (aka just a concentrate of Twitter)
have fun, dear government agents. You were the ones who wanted it.
I hope trollish attitude or behaviour isn't disqualifying, but I couldn't care less if I'm allowed in the USA or not.
