Facebook 'likes' could land immigrants, naturalized citizens in trouble with feds

http://www.freep.com/story/news/politic ... 718308001/

For immigrants and naturalized citizens, something as simple as a Facebook “like” on the wrong post could spell trouble with Homeland Security or end with them being turned away at the border.

According to legal and privacy experts, a Department of Homeland Security policy made public on Sept. 18 could send the country into uncharted territory when it comes to immigration protocol by targeting permanent residents and naturalized citizens for their online activities.

The policy, published as a notice on the Federal Register, expands the categories of records kept on file for permanent U.S. residents and naturalized citizens to include “social media handles, aliases, associated identifiable information and search results” but did not spell out how the information would be collected.

lol - according to some news sites, every immigrant and naturalized citizen will have an immigration e-file where all online activities will be saved for future references. In other words, use your fb/twitter likes with caution :)

Haha, no answer. Yeah I know they collect everything and these major tech companies also provide them with data on their users not just the likes, they also recently passed a regulation allowing your ISP to collect, use and sell information about your online habits and they'll get that too.
