Real ID requirements come with major privacy concerns. Lots of secrecy and $$ going to NGOs. DOGE needs to look into this issue. @DOGE @elonmusk @VivekGRamaswamy

US visitors to Europe are right to object to fingerprinting, mug shots, e-visa approved before departure for Europe. But all of this follows US precedents and pressure. Don't like it? Start by getting US to roll back similar restrictions on visitors to US:

Travel blacklists target political critics: US govt blacklists (euphemistically described as “watchlists”) are being used to restrict air travel and target searches of protesters against US support for Israel’s actions in Gaza.

David captured video on his cell phone of a DEA agent trailing him onto the plane and grabbing his backpack. I explain today in @Forbes how civil forfeiture and the profit incentive is behind such constitutionally questionable searches: forbes.com/sites/institutefo…

Outstanding & scary deep-dive into the travel surveillance system by @ehasbrouck I don't know how I missed it earlier. I'm afraid that it's probably all still current. The government is keeping a permanent record of your lifetime peregrinations. youtu.be/JN4q2swvab8

Credit to the ACLU and other groups for wanting to defund what's been accurately described by @PapersPlease as a DHS 'pre-crime' program.

The IRS is still using IDme for access to critical tax services...IDme requires you to give up your right to join a class action lawsuit even if your face data is stolen or you are accused of fraud. We deserve better. - Learn more in my open letter here: bit.ly/nocasenoface
It's 💸 tax season & @AJLUnited is launching the #NoCaseNoFace campaign.
🆘No private company should handle your data & waive your legal rights. This is what happens when you sign up as a new user to access your taxes via IDme.

The proposed rule uses airlines to conduct #surveillance that CBP is not authorized to do under the Privacy Act, and would undermine the status of airlines as common carriers who cannot deny people access to travel.
