Etats-Unis : un chercheur français refoulé pour avoir exprimé « une opinion personnelle sur la politique menée par l’administration Trump »
www.lemonde.frLe ministre de la recherche français a dit sa « préoccupation », mercredi, après cette décision des autorités américaines. Le chercheur du CNRS aurait subi un contrôle aléatoire à son arrivée, avant que son ordinateur et son téléphone ne soient fouillés.
“The space researcher was allegedly randomly checked on arrival, during which his professional computer and personal telephone were allegedly searched. Similarly, messages about the Trump administration’s treatment of scientists have been found.”

I heard from a Redditor that his tweets were luring US scientists to EU and his visit was a recruitment drive. One USAmerican already took up the offer.
I imagine US does not want to identify him because although we could verify the above in his tweets, it would be advertising the lure for US scientists to defect.
And the French guy probably does not want to identify himself because je wants to make the US government look as bad as possible.
Not random, not as bad as the headline sounds but not worthy of banning anyhow.
