High Value Data Elements
To comply with the January 2025 E.O. (14161), and the April 4,
2025, Memorandum Updating All Forms to Collect Baseline
Biographic Data, CBP will add several “high value data fields” to the
ESTA application, when feasible. This is in addition to the information
already collected in the ESTA application.
The high value data fields include:
a. Telephone numbers used in the last five years;
b. Email addresses used in the last ten years;
c. IP addresses and metadata from electronically submitted photos;
d. Family member names (parents, spouse, siblings, children);
e. Family number telephone numbers used in the last five years;
f. Family member dates of birth;
g. Family member places of birth;
h. Family member residencies;
i. Biometrics – face, fingerprint, DNA, and iris;
j. Business telephone numbers used in the last five years;
k. Business email addresses used in the last ten years.
Misleading title. Post makes it sound like all data is requires. Low effort.
Email adresses is gonna be fun with my catch all.
ESTA?
Everyone Stay Thefuck Away?
If we did this to the Republican party I wonder how many rape cases would be solved.
None when they run things.
Solved, not prosecuted.
It’s the fascist populist playbook in action again
- Campaign under “bringing things back to the old ways”
- Implementation of exploitation
- Make it harder to leave
- Make it harder for others to enter
At this point why would anyone from civilized world even want to visit the ex-colonies?
Hey, what did Canada do? Or eTA isn’t even as invasive as the EU’s proposed ETIAS, and certainly nothing approaching the anal-probe-level personal violations of the ESTA. And we need tourism. The US is fucking our economy in a massive way.
L take brother.
the ruzzian bots are here
Lol?
Calling Europe the “civilzed world” and referring to other places as “ex-colonies” has deeply racist undertones. I am sorry that calling this out can only be seen as “ruzzian bots” by the folks in this community, especially when I have no sympathy for russia 😅.
I guess this place ia truly becoming like reddit now. Where people downvote shit without understanding it.
I think the problem was that you wrote a comment that wasn’t understandable
Every other country should apply the same list on US citizens.
Or just ban US citizens. Fuck them.
Don’t be like your enemy, be better;
USA citizens did nothing wrong (beside voting trump but it’s not all of them ofc)
Edit: i don’t understand why y’all want to punish every citizen od USA, even those that did not voted trump or those that are actively agains him and do protests
Yep and the ones traveling internationally probably didn’t vote for Trump but idiots love to downvote a good point.
It’s like saying Russian people did nothing wrong besides voting for Putin, but it’s not all of them ofc.
In both cases, the war machine will become weaker if it’s easier for the smart ones to leave.
I would agree if it weren’t painfully obvious the Russian elections that brought put in in weren’t heavily influenced by putin-run domestic terrorism and election fraud.
Wait, actually, it still is a good comparison.
Carry on.
I am saying that not all USA citizens voted trump so they shouldn’t be punished for that, it’s like if i suddently decide to ban all german people from my country because of hitler, it just make no sense at all
So maybe other countries should require US citizens to submit their last five years of social media history so they can block any maga idiots. ;-)
Expect that’s exactly what should happen. If the people don’t rise up to fix the shit thats happening then they are complicit.
The germans fought back just as much as the stupid ones helped during hitlers reign.
Till the American people actually start fucking doing something. Then guess fucking what.
Punish everyone.
Not it isn’t. 80% =/= 35%
That parenthetical does a lot of lifting in there…
Lol be better got you Trump.
Noz horrible campaigning and racists got us trump
I wonder what my grandparents in the Ruhr region of germany did wrong that justified bombing them day and night…
Collective punishment is the only way to stop stupid from putting stupid in power.
We the people picked this. Even the ones that didn’t. Everyone is equally at fault no matter what or the circumstances.
That’s the very fucking definition of democracy.
We all get to enjoy the benefits when we do well and we all get punished when we fuck up. We arent a dictatorship. We can’t just blame our government for sucking.
The people ARE at fault.
But not ALL the people, many didn’t voted trump and many are doing protests/manifestations, not ALL people are fault.
Doing that shit of punishing everyone who is citizen in USA is so fucking stupid and childish
I didn’t vote Trump
A lot of that list is just info I don’t have. I don’t even know most of my family’s current number, you expect the past?
The IP one is hilarious. I’ve likely had hundreds of IPs in the last 5 years, and I don’t know any of them. Would you just send a range of potential options or do they expect me to know and write out hundreds of IP addresses? The total range of every carrier I’ve used in the last 5 years?
I would guess your average person couldn’t tell you what an IP address is.
Would you just send a range of potential options
0.0.0.0/0 ::/0Something in that range.
I’ve had the same IP address forever: 127.0.0.1.
Cool, mine is 192.168.0.1!
Me too, ::1
I used to be a 10.1.1.1 but I’ve been mobile hotspot exclusive for years now and I have no fucking clue what internal IP my phone uses
Ummm… I’m pretty sure it’s 255.255.255.0 ? …or maybe it’s .256…
No wait, it’s [ABCD::EFGH]
It’s ok, I’ll just do vacation somewhere else.
I wonder how will they react if I say that I don’t have any social media accounts.
But I guess I’ll keep wondering since my interest on going to that shithole has been plummetting for the last 20 years and right now is at below zero levels.
There is zero chance I could accurately provide this information to anyone, none of my family members could, because they don’t know the phone numbers I’ve had… All around it sounds like a shit idea.
It’s an attempt on intimidation, because supposedly for the person travelling it’s a lose-lose:
- provide all your data, and allow the US government (and any connected entities (big tech)) to use it to track and sell that data
- don’t provide all your data, and when the US government suspects that you did that, they can bar entry for little reason, and/or have legal grounds(/excuse) for go after you
All around it’s a humiliation and intimidation exercise
It’s a protectionist policy. This is designed to keep people from entering as not many will want to give out the required.
Well, it was signed by Shitler, so what would you expect.
Translation: Musk said “Here, sign this and then we go to McDonald’s!” and Trump was like “ALL RIGHT!”
Get fucked
Aren’t all EU countries on the list of visa free - waived ESTA requirements countries ? Thought that was the case? Or has that been reversed?
No. Romania, for example, is not. It was announced in January that we would enter the program but then they removed us in June.
AFAIK that’s still the case. But that has always included the requirement to fill out a form, providing some information. I remember things like „are you a terrorist“ and such. So it has just been extended a little.
Yes, I wonder why that “are you a terrorist” question isn’t enough for them.
No it’s not,because they realised that NO was the answer a real terrorist would have given
Lying on that form is a crime. The purpose is to actually have a crime committed if they later find you’re affiliated with Al Qaeda.
Damn, they’re smart.
So just throw all that confirmed NO to Guantanamo. There, problem solved.
Yeah, this data is requested in addition to existing data already requested in ESTA application
mfw I don’t know most of the required information.
