- jrockway 13y agoActually, the Constitution does apply to people that are not US citizens. However, it's the "law of the land" and the border (and other countries) is not part of that land.
- rdouble 13y agoThe USCIS reviews Facebook for those applying for long term visas, to prevent fraud. It doesn't have anything to do with the NSA.
