How does this system work? Applicants can provide some but not all of the logins. Also, people will then turn to multiple accounts.

  > Applicants can provide some but not all of the logins. Also, people will then turn to multiple accounts If the form asks you for all your social-media handles, and you fail to list one, that's visa fraud.

    Good thing those social media sites haven’t embedded themselves in with the administration and aren’t in a position to execute dragnets for secret accounts of visa applicants.

    Wonder how does that work... is HN considered a "social media site"? Is reddit? If at some point I opened a throwaway reddit account to ask about the mole in my anus, does should I report that account? And if I forgot the handle, am i doing fraud omitting it?

Practically, if you’re posting pro-Hamas content here and the guidelines wind up citing that as something they look for, yes. > if I forgot the handle, am i doing fraud omitting it? Fraud typically requires mens rea. Not legal advice. But I don’t think this would count as visa fraud.

      That kind of ambiguity is a feature to them, not a bug. It means that every citizen naturalized under these rules will have to ponder what happens if USCIS starts digging into their application with specific intent to find a reason to consider it fraudulent, and self-censor accordingly.

    OK, so delete them before you fill out the form.
