The Trump-led government has proposed a new system in which several "high-value data fields" must be provided to enter the country as a touristÂ
TO gain entry to the United States, the Trump regime has ordered that tourists must disclose five years' worth of social media history to border security staff.
The new regulation, which would affect those that have come to the United States without a visa, including all Australian tourists, would allow the US government to easily require ideological support to enter the country.
This shows additional reason to avoid going to the United States next year, and to avoid giving the United States government your money or social media data.
The proposed new requirements would also require potential tourists to give information in several other "high-value data fields", including a decade's worth of email addresses, and personal details of family members.
This would make the United States among the worst nations to enter as a tourist from Australia.
