We can make the request, but there might not be anyone on the other end to read it.

Seems like a good way for DOGE to create a "trouble maker" list and go round up everyone that supplies their home address.
Yes, I'm aware they'll find the people they're looking for eventually.
That's fine. Open Defiance is your only option. Keeping your head down it's just letting fascism win. Let him know you're an enemy. Arm yourself and be ready.
I think the whole point of this is that DOGE already has your home address. And probably a lot more besides, by now.
Best to tie them up responding to a mountain of forms, or if they refuse to get them in more legal trouble.
- Soapbox
- Ballot Box
- Mailbox <- You are Here
- Jury Box
- Ammo Box
They just fired the team who handles the requests.
Then they won't reply, and we go to the jury box.
But at the same time, doing nothing is even worse.
Troublemaker checking in
Honestly, fuck it. Come round me up, assholes. Might not be as easy as you’re assuming.
I aim to misbehave
If you admit they probably already know and can find “troublemakers”, what’s the point of your comment?
Make damn sure there is real trouble involved. This is a pretty tame and accessible way to do it, but baby steps.
Only if people have your outlook. Scare the ones on the fence so when it happens they can say " see I was right."
That makes you accept what is happening is ok or justified in some way. Same mindset that says "just comply."
Don't be afraid to make trouble
You've chosen 'Do Nothing and Let Them Continue'.
Congratulations.
Charter 1 and 8 are especially relevant.

What stops them from just deleting everything or hiding it? Or just saying haha no, try enforcing it. We fired the foia people. Also Doge is disbanded now
That's already happening. https://www.cnn.com/2025/02/18/politics/opm-privacy-team-fired/index.html
“Good luck with that they just got rid of the entire privacy team,” an OPM email address responded to CNN’s FOIA request.
Holy shit
This will result in a law suit
Guns.
Awesome!
Paperwork ain't gonna do shit.
