Hi,
This is perhaps outside of the NCSG's activities, but I agree with you that this
is a very problematic proposal. The Center for Democracy & Technology has
published a blog post outlining why this is a terrible idea, along with some
actions you can take if you also disagree with the notion that entering a
country under a visa-waiver programme should entail turning over access to your
social media handles:

Best wishes,

Hi,

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) wants to begin asking foreign visitors
to the United States for their social media accounts. This proposal threatens
not only the free speech rights of foreign visitors, but also those of their
families and anyone who’s spoken with them via social media.

That's what Thailand has done, too.
