Ryan Shapiro is a FOIA activist whose work helped expose the Dallas occupy plot. At one point the FBI wanted to stop to respond to his FOIA requests.[1]
Shapiro is regarded by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) as the "most prolific" FOIA requester,[2] and the FBI has claimed that his requests for information through the FOIA are "irreparably damag[ing] to national security."[3]
