So, I disagree with your conclusion even when restricted to the realm of reasonable classification - I don't think that everyday communications from state actors, acting on the public behalf, are reasonably considered classified, and neither does the FOIA. But, for my part, I will go even further. I think that: > Governments, like any other private entity are allowed to keep confidential information. Is just wrong. I don't think that, in this day and age, it's a good idea for governments to keep anything secret. At all. And I'm pretty absolutist about that. And I think that's a reasonable information-age policy. And I think that governments will begin to adopt it or look silly for refusing to do so. > It's really sad to see so manny people think that 'individual privacy is paramount' but then can't grasp that other actors, including state actors, don't have reasonable rights to privacy. This is exactly my belief. I cannot grasp - or rather have grasped and cast away in disgust - the idea that "state actors [have] reasonable rights to privacy." They don't.
