Our New FOIA Forum! 6/18, 1PM ET
Its that time again! Were planning our latest FOIA Forum, a live, hour-long or more interactive session where Joseph and Jason (and this time Emanuel too maybe) will teach you how to pry records from government agencies through public records requests. Were planning this for Wednesday, 18th at 1 PM Eastern. That's in just one week today! Add it to your calendar!So, whats the FOIA Forum? We'll share our screen and show you specifically how we file FOIA requests. We take questions from the chat and incorporate those into our FOIAs in real-time. Well also check on some requests we filed last time. This time we're particularly focused on Jason's and Emanuel's article about Massive Blue, a company that helps cops deploy AI-powered fake personas. The article, called This College Protester Isnt Real. Its an AI-Powered Undercover Bot for Cops, is here. This was heavily based on public records requests. We'll show you how we did them!If this will be your first FOIA Forum, dont worry, we will do a quick primer on how to file requests (although if you do want to watch our previous FOIA Forums, the video archive is here). We really love talking directly to our community about something we are obsessed with (getting documents from governments) and showing other people how to do it too.Paid subscribers can already find the link to join the livestream below. We'll also send out a reminder a day or so before. Not a subscriber yet? Sign up now here in time to join.We've got a bunch of FOIAs that we need to file and are keen to hear from you all on what you want to see more of. Most of all, we want to teach you how to make your own too. Please consider coming along!
