Yes, I am new here. So why don't you tell me why you haven't answered this question I posited earlier:
Why are you arguing for a US government agency to
require its citizens to pay for access to data which
they have already paid for by funding said agency?
- dylan604 3y agoThere's a difference from paying for the information, and paying for the expense of delivering that information. You have to pay for official copies of documents like birth/marriage/death certificates. To get copies of public court documents costs as well even though you can read the data for free. Toner/paper isn't free, fancy paper for certs aren't free. You can have the data, but you gotta pay for the copy.
