What will the US authorities be looking for in our social media history?

from Breakfast Business with Joe Lynam

The US government now demands to see your social media history before issuing a tourist visa or ESTA to that country.  That includes Irish would-be travellers and sports fans if Ireland qualifies for the World Cup this summer.  And Trump is already having an impact.  Foreign visitors to the US fell 4.2% last year while international travel worldwide grew 4%. Joe spoke to Gloria Guevara the Chief Executive of the World Travel & Tourism Council who carried out the research and began by asking her what the US authorities would be looking for in our social media history.
