      Isn’t it linked to your name though? Like, you think your OPSEC is good enough for the Five Eyes not to know who is behind your Lemmy account? Kind of doubt it honestly…

        Does the rest of Five Eyes still share shit with the US? They probably ought to stop that

          Unclear to me, but I would assume sending poisoned data would be far more attractive than cancelling the agreement for either side. Until there are open hostilities at least.

        You think the international intelligence community is tracking me do you. Also do you think the border agents have access to that stuff?

          I’m saying they are tracking everyone they can, which is just about… everyone. Even if you do the best you can with encryption everywhere, running your traffic through proxies, and whatnot, your communications are still likely to be saved until decryption algorithms/compute catches up. Nevermind metadata which is probably all that would be needed to identify the average Lemmy account.

          Do border agents have access to that? Probably not directly, but I would presume any visa application to be routed through intelligence services. And while those may not have reported a missing social media account before, you know with that not being a requirement at all, they sure might under this administration.
