Three things jump out about this reporting on Trump/Rubio/Republican plans to subject foreign visitors to the US to intrusive invasions of privacy.
1. They want to isolate the US even further;
2. This is an excuse to force tech companies to share more data (not that they haven't been already);
3. This feels like business expansion via government policy for companies like Palantir
