- behringer 1y agoNo, probably not.
- standardUser 1y agoThat a gross misunderstanding of immigration laws, considering nearly all immigration violations are civil matters, not criminal.
- wasabi991011 1y agoThe comment specifically mentions visa waivers and ESTA
- wasabi991011 1y agoWhy behind bars? Isn't the obvious step to deport them?
- dpkirchner 1y agoThe first step is to get them in front of a judge.
- lazyasciiart 1y agoNo, it’s to imprison them and have someone yell at them in English to sign a piece of paper written in English that says you agree to be deported.
- protocolture 1y agoThats disgusting.
- graeme 1y agoIf you've ever traveled abroad and replied to a work email or worked on anything at your hotel there's a chance you violated visa rules in some form. Very easy to find a violation if you want to find one, following the letter and not the spirit of the law.

- orwin 1y agoIt was an ESTA, and yes, technically working from the US with an ESTA isn't allowed. I'm not invited to the CES since I've left the first company I worked for in 2020, but I definitely would have cancelled all my plans to do so until this is clarified. If I needed a full visa to get there, I probably wouldn't have. Also that's not what happened. The ones responsible for the breach, IE Hyundai execs and management who took care of the visa waivers and asked their employees to setup production lines were not arrested, only the people who had little to say about capital allocation were. In a way, Hyundai investors would have been a better target than their workers since they choose the execs who chose to build in the USA.
