    The Trump administration continues its war against disfavored speech by forcing student visa applicants to make their social media accounts public.

      If you say that you have no social media accounts they will probably assume you’re lying and deny you.

        I imagined. Probably it’s better to have a public one where you have the kind of things they want to see.

          Tomorrow there’ll probably be a service to do exactly they. Give them a few pics and they’ll deep fake an entire account for you.

            That’s an excellent idea, particularly because that service would use AI against the type of people who typically shill or welcome AI products. Let’s build more of those.
