How bad is it to lose this "global entry"? I had to Google it and it appears to be a way to skip some queues in airports?

Unsurprising.<p>Plenty of examples of people losing&#x2F;not getting Global Entry for:<p>- having a misdemeanor from 50 years ago<p>- having mail seized by the post office<p>- having the same name as a someone with a disqualifying record<p>- living in the same (I.e. same address) as someone who has a disqualifying record<p>- getting caught not declaring something at the border even though it was disposed of<p>My guess is that ICE face scans get added to a “related to immigration investigation” and it automatically revokes GE.<p>Good news is that the Ombudsman can resolve issues related to identity.<p>But for even the most minor infraction USCBP will remind you GE is a “privilege” and is given at the discretion of the government.
