Leaving the US might get more interesting...

another GDR on the making?

As of January 14th 2007 a new rule regulating the disclosure of details about international travelers leaving the United States of America will come into effect. Another element of control .... what is next in the land of the free?

The new rule on paper (1 page pdf English)

And how it will be handled. Interesting.

What was that Benjamin Franklin statement again? Well, something about liberty and freedom and the possibility of the two colliding.
