I wrote up a quick #blog about making a #FOIA request to the #FBI through their web portal, the basics of how to make a request, how to write the request itself and tips on making sure that your request gets processed. While this blog is specific to the FBI the tips could be used for other agencies.

When #Trump returned to office, his rivals & #law enforcement ofcls feared he would follow through on his pledges to use the #DOJ & #FBI to investigate & even imprison perceived enemies.
But since winning re-election, Trump’s retribution campaign has turned out to be far more expansive, efficient & creative than anticipated. It has also been less reliant on the justice system.

Der angesehene IT-Sicherheitsforscher Xiaofeng Wang ist seit Wochen nicht erreichbar, seine Profile, E-Mail-Adresse und Telefonnummer wurden von der Website der Indiana University entfernt.
Das #FBI durchsuchte zwei Wohnsitze von Wang und seiner Frau, ohne Angaben zum Grund zu machen.
Kollegen zeigen sich alarmiert – das Vorgehen gilt als äußerst ungewöhnlich. Bisher schweigen #Universität, #FBI und das #Justizministerium der #USA

The Base, founded in 2018 & designated world-wide as a terrorist organization, is now free to export it’s neo-nazi violence abroad now that Trump has pulled the FBI from pursuing the far right. “This is the first time the Base has openly allied itself with the Kremlin’s broader geopolitical goals”

Das Verschwinden des renommierten IT-Sicherheitsforschers Xiaofeng Wang in den #USA sorgt in der #Wissenschaftscommunity für Unruhe.
Nach Hausdurchsuchungen durch das #FBI ist Wang seit Wochen nicht erreichbar, auch sein Uni-Profil wurde gelöscht. Offizielle Stellen schweigen – mögliche Gründe reichen von internen Ermittlungen bis hin zu Vorwürfen im Bereich der #nationalenSicherheit.
Ein Haus in #Bloomington, das dem bekannten IT-Forscher Xiaofeng Wang und seiner Frau Nianli Ma gehört, wurde am 28. März 2025 von #FBI und #Heimatschutzbehörde durchsucht.
Die Einsatzkräfte waren stundenlang vor Ort, durchsuchten auch Müllbehälter – doch die Behörden geben keine Auskunft.
Wang wurde am selben Tag von der Indiana #University entlassen, seine Profile gelöscht. Der Vorfall sorgt unter Kolleg*innen für große Besorgnis.
"Individually, the reports say little that isn’t already in the news or on social media; but taken as a whole, they depict a government hysteria about the attacks on Tesla, described less like petty crime than some kind of violent insurgency. The entire alerting process, in fact, feels like a government-fueled contagion, a set of reports that create the vague impression of an assault on the American way of life.
What is most glaring about the reports in the immediate sense is that President Trump’s March 21 declaration that violence against Tesla is “terrorism” isn’t being echoed by law enforcement or the national intelligence community. Not yet.
A Joint Intelligence Bulletin produced by the FBI and Department of Homeland Security on March 21 (“Individuals Target Tesla Vehicles and Dealerships Nationwide With Arson, Gunfire and Vandalism”) reveals a sweeping effort by both agencies to “investigate,” “deter” and “disrupt” what it calls “nationwide incidents targeting Tesla electric vehicles” and equipment. But it never once mentions the word ‘terrorism’ to describe the spate of attacks on Tesla vehicles that started in January. (This despite the report being produced by the FBI’s Counterterrorism Division.) Instead, the assessment uses a different word: “vandalism.”"
