The FBI's preference for total secrecy, in complete contrast to the law, is a very scary fact indeed. There are many things that I love about living in America - you get to be at the pinnacle of tech development, you can make a good wage, but all that is starting to pale in comparison to the Government's agenda for KGB-like activities. The USA used to be the champion of civil rights. Now it uses that image to perpetrate abuses of public freedoms that would impress the NKVD.
As explained above: not a NKVDist plot. This is just the result of some poor analysts (I hear they mistreat their analysts at FBI) getting stuck with FOIA duty trying to get through their day. There is plenty that I myself am wary of about how the government conducts itself, but this is seeing corruption for the sake of seeing corruption. Save the panic rant for real problems.
