THE US EMBASSY in Dublin is tightening its visa requirements, saying that future applicants looking to visit the country will be required to divulge “all social media usernames or handles of every platform they have used from the last five years” on their visa application form.

This will apply to all applicants for F, M, and J nonimmigrant visas.

Tell visa applicants to delete their political posts without telling them to delete their political posts.

Seems pointless and costly.

Agreed. Symbolic at best and not an attractive symbol.
