Holy shit!!! This is insane info - wow! How does one submit a FOIA request? Is there a link? I'm assuming you have to give them your name and address and such? I've submitted one to the UK before, and only had to give my email address. They responded, but with a really long explanation about why they couldn't release any info to me (it was about the Madeleine McCann case). Ugh.

Here is the link to the Chicago PD FOIA request page. What makes me hesitate on this is that the info is published online and I'm not sure who would want to potentially sacrifice their online anonymity for this.

Ok, it looks like you can just email them a request? In which case, the only info they can publish is your "name" (ahem) and email address? How bad is that if someone uses something like protonmail? Do you think they'll actually attempt to track them down and/or harass them via email?
