When I read that the US had proposed making ESTA visitors hand over five years of their social media, I asked myself, would I even want to go there now? Then I went looking at where all that information ends up. Part 1 of my Five Eyes series.

No, absolutely not the scariest and likely never will be.. But I gotta wonder, what if someone really doesn't use any social media and then when visiting they get stopped and they got nothing to show? I feel like they're gonna get accused of "hiding" and denied entry..

    Now that I thought about this a bit more, freshly made empty social media profiles would be even more suspicious.. Huh. Would the person need to make full-on fake profiles long before the actual trip? I know I plan my travels early, but never ever have had to add a date in calendar for making the decoy social media profiles.
