A significant part of why things are bad for non-resident aliens is that protecting your social media accounts is abnormal, so doing it flags you as an anomaly.

But that's not because people don't want to protect their social media accounts. You could probably make decent money with a "travel lock" product that groomed your accounts this way, in fact. The reason nobody does it is that the big cloud services don't offer this as a built-in feature.

So this is a case, it seems to me, where helping citizens will have a knock-on effect of also helping non-resident aliens.
