The state capture by big tech is getting insane. No national ID because privacy and government overreach but sure force everyone to register an account with a private entity that specifically profits by selling your personal information.

I am curious if they'll reject me for not having any active mainstream social media accounts. I suppose I'll find out next year. Might make a few accounts to automate with LLMs and Stable Diffusion with pro-Trump content just in case when I get time on the weekends.

Now that I think about it, this policy is a really smart play. Pretty much incentivizing foreign interference and sentiment manipulation while keeping more left leaning immigrants out of the country. Give it a few years and that might be enough to give the republicans a consistent majority of national vote share.

I don't know. The next president might not like that and deny your visa.
