This might actually be the preferred choice for some people who wish to attempt travel, but are unwilling to sacrifice personal private.



And? The target country doesn't lose anything through this if some entitled internet privacy advocates without big business stop travelling to it. Everyone who is serious about coming actually handles immigration/border tax like an adult.

Nobody cares about your private life unless you are trying to affect others negatively.


Wrong: The target country loses money.

Wrong: Everyone who is serious about travelling can make their own choices about tradeoffs. That's what being an adult is all about.

Correction: "Nobody cares about your private life unless you are trying to affect others negatively, OR if they can use that information for personal gains, even if at a loss to you."

I'm done fixing your mistakes. Cheers.


"some people who wish to attempt travel, but are unwilling to sacrifice personal private."

If people value their privacy higher than the economic benefit from their travels, the economic impact of them not proceeding is most likely minimal.

The state and its agents don't use information for personal gains, their job and passion concerns society as a whole, and they want to make sure that no bad guys come in.
