At first I thought: giving this info might ease me from being treated as a semi-terrorist because I regularily visit Iran.
Then I thought some more... my LinkedIn-Profile mentions I own a US company. Which is false, that mentioning there is only a means to get access to some groups and test waters as "if I was a local" because we consider moving there. I guess coming as a tourists and then DHS reads I have a company might lead to serious questions.Everything you do nowadays is a mean to surveil you.

If you regularly visit Iran, it's likely that you're already excluded from the Visa Waiver Program due to the Visa Waiver Program Improvement and Terrorist Travel Prevention Act of 2015.
