The intelligence

A Homeland Security inventory released in January 2026 lists a border agency tool built to find social media accounts, phone numbers and emails the agency did not already hold for a traveler. This brief asks what changes when screening starts from what a traveler filed and expands beyond it, and how a link discovered this way is confirmed or corrected. Built from the inventory entry, vendor material and a privacy assessment obtained under FOIA. For principals who travel.
