Why tho?
Travel to that country is getting more painful day by day. You need to give them all social media handles you've used in the last 5 years (which I don't fully remember/forgot) and possibly even more. Other countries with an eVisa system just ask you for your passport number and a fee.
Fuck it, I'll go somewhere where I don't need that BS, like Austria, which I literally have a train ride away (or I can take a walk there).
Social media handles? Really?
