Looks like U.S. officials are floating a wild idea: tourists might soon need to hand over five years of social media history just to step foot in the country. Yeah, you read that right—five years. Your tweets, posts, stories, the whole digital footprint laid bare before border control. Privacy advocates are probably having a field day with this one. Whether it's about security theater or actual threat prevention, one thing's clear: the line between surveillance and safety keeps getting blurrier.

Five years of social media records? This is damn ridiculous. Is the US trying to turn everyone into invisible people?

Five years of social media records? That's hilarious. Are they trying to turn us all into transparent people?
