I don't think I could supply all the details even if I was inclined to. And as someone with my own domain name I'd be seriously tempted to do some sort of reverse dictionary attack <word>@domain and flood them with email addresses
NEW: Five years of social media history is only a fraction of what the US Government will shortly demand of overseas visitors.
The full requirements will end tourism in the United States.
Below is the full, mind-blowing list.

Want to travel to the US? You might have to give the Trump administration the last five years of your social media history.

Supermarkets were the first to realise data has value so initially offered free stuff (via points) for giving them data. Then they realised people are thick and give data to other companies for free so they changed it to 'we will punish you if you don't give us the data'.

O say can you see by the dawn's early light, what so proudly I posted on twitter while creaming
Those shitposts and cool memes through perilous fight,

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’

I think another weird facet to this is if you say "I was driving today & there are so many terrible, dangerous drivers," people tend to be like "ugh, I know" but if you say "I was cycling today & there are so many terrible, dangerous drivers," they furiously disagree & imply it was your own fault.
Something I've been thinking about a lot lately is how when a driver does something wrong, the public and media don't smear all drivers as reckless assholes. But when a cyclist — and especially an e-biker — does something wrong, all bicyclists get attacked and blamed.
