Right to Know: A Historical Guide to the Freedom of Information Act The Resistance Library from Ammo.com

    • Philosophy

On this episode of the Resistance Library Podcast, Sam and David discuss the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA.) Information has taken on a whole new meaning in the digital age, a time when sensitive data is either too easily accessible or not accessible enough. This issue of access to information encompasses fundamental human rights – specifically the freedom of speech as well as the right to privacy. Because it’s a primary means of maintaining transparency and accountability within government policies and decision-making in both the United States and around the globe, information is more valuable than ever to both government agencies and our individual lives. This guide takes an in-depth look at FOIA history and the importance of exercising your right to know.
