The headline is misleading. I'd suggest changing the submission URL to use the original Politico post and their title: "U.S. government begins asking foreign travelers about social media".
Not that I approve of this policy. Maybe it's time to kill off my social media accounts.

"What changed that made you want to hide? Don't you trust the government?" It might be better to set up something that just randomly shares the latest Beyonce news or something.

- sasas 10y agoCould you elaborate further on the situation without compromising details on the person? I.e. Who gave them the third degree and under what circumstances were they asked for their twitter account ?
