This is beyond…
#LeMonde reporting that a French scientist traveling to Houston to attend a conference was denied entry to #US after a #search of his #phone & #computer revealed messages critical of #Trump's #science cuts, "which [says #CPB] conveyed hatred of Trump & could be qualified as terrorism". Computer confiscated.

@Nonilex Shades of Soviet Russia and east Germany. Soon you’ll have to be careful what you say in public as you will be reported by a MAGA spy for speaking ill of dear leader.
@alex_p_roe @Nonilex The Soviet Union had the KGB, East Germany the Stasi.

@Mik3y @samhainnight @karlauerbach @alex_p_roe @Nonilex not to mention all the #GAFAMs and #TechBros who get to know that #CloudAct means they'll have to integrate more #Govware #Backdors and enable #BulkSurveillance or get shut down & jailed faster than they can say #EncroChat or #SkyECC...
@Mik3y @samhainnight @karlauerbach @alex_p_roe @Nonilex basically #Cyberfacism by the #USA, demanding #BulkSurveillance and #BulkAccess to all the data any #US-Corporation has regardless where it's stored or who it's customers are.
