[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a friend who was born in Taiwan, is a naturalized US citizen, and has many Chinese relatives who live on the mainland or who live in the USA and often travel to Taiwan and the PRC. He still has a clearance. This sorta surprises me.[/quote]

He is a US citizen.  He is allowed to travel if he gets permission.[/quote]

Permission from whom? US citizens don’t need permission to travel. [/quote]

Having a clearance means that to a certain extent there are some civil liberties that you do give up.  You do need to report planned foreign travel, receive permission and often get a pre-travel threat briefing.  Afterwards you have to fill out paperwork.  The government is trusting you with classified information, your whereabouts are important.

This is real - it is not just movie stuff.   I know of a CIA agent who recently was murdered.    If you have a TS and are traveling abroad, the agency needs to know so they can "help" in case you do not return.
