The clickbait continues of course, today with "Global Entry is Becoming Tougher to Get - And Being Revoked"

The actual content is:

- Nothing about GE criteria becoming more stringent, as the headline implies, but about the lengthy wait times currently being experienced for processing the initial applications. So - not tougher to get, just taking longer. Which sucks of course, but not the scare that the headline contains.

- A "reminder" - link to a prior VFTW post - of things that can cause one's GE to be revoked (failure to declare declarable items, criminal convictions, etc); not the implication from the headline that GEs are somehow being suddenly revoked for some totally new reason or whatever.

Both of the above are good pieces of info to be aware of - there really wasn't any need for the click-bait, but I guess when you're in the habit...
