Curtis,
We need the FOIA request and CPD’s response in their entirety-showing to whom it was sent, date it was sent, etc. CPD states they attached a letter so we need a copy of that as well.

I provided such in the links I sent. Do you need more/different sourcing? I also sent an email in which the response was attached, but I will do reattach that now.

To Whom It May Concern:
This is a request for review.
I had asked the Chicago Police Department for records involving a social media monitoring company called Babel Street. This request asked for mostly contractual documents, and also asked for emails. The CPD records office informed me that they had "quite a number of pages" and would be releasing them to me shortly. Then, a month later, they exempted the entire release, which shocked me. I have asked police departments around the country for documents on Babel Street and other companies which sell proprietary equipment to law enforcement, and have always been able to get at least contracts. I have even written an article for Motherboard which cites a FOIA request in which the agency granted me records about Babel Street. The public has a right to know what tools police are using. Maybe not exactly how they are being used, or proprietary information about the product, but the public has a right to know what tools their government is using and buying.
Knowing how much CPD paid for this program, what program they bought, and how long this has been in use, are vital pieces of information for the public and do not damage police work in any way. This is more or less standard practice, and as someone who has filed hundred if not thousands of FOIA requests, this was a shocking denial. The CPD issued the following exemption to me: "[d]isclose unique or specialized investigative techniques
other than those generally used and known or disclose internal documents of correctional agencies related to detection,
observation or investigation of incidents of crime or misconduct, and disclosure would result in demonstrable harm to
the agency or public body that is the recipient of the request." 5 ILCS 140/7(1)(d)(v). These kind of programs are in general use around the nation, and disclosure of contracts would in know allow the public to be able to circumvent this program or render it useless. Their assertion that "Given that these social media monitoring
tools have great worth in identifying victims and perpetrators, it would be incredibly damaging to the Department’s
police powers if these tools were publicly identified. As such, use or potential use of these programs must be withheld
pursuant to 7(1)(d)(v).," is a stunning refusal of transparency. Disclosing which company and how much they paid for it is not releasing any information that would damage their ability to use the program. I was not asking for information about how it is used by CPD, or how often or in what capacity.
CPD is known to use social media monitoring. Their scandal with Geofeedia is well known. Contractual documents between them and Babel Street should be released as soon as possible.
Attached is the link to my request, and CPD's denial. I had requested review on Tuesday but was told that my chance for review had expired, so I refiled and was granted the same denial on August 11th 2017.

Dear Ms. Harper,
This is in response to the Chicago Police Department's correspondence with your office. What I would like to contend is two things mainly. One, CPD asserts that just by giving up the name of the tool they are using, likely Babel Street, it would equal giving up important law enforcement methods to prevent crime. I find this unsatisfying. I do not understand this reasoning, because it seems to me, due to the widespread Geofeedia scandal in which Twitter, Facebook, and other major social media platforms cut off access to the company, the public is already well aware that police use social media monitoring tools. To that end, I do not see the harm in releasing contracts concerning which social media tool CPD is using. To repeat, I am not asking for anything more. I am not asking investigative techniques be disclosed. I simply want to see how much CPD paid for their social media monitoring tool. And I think it is a stretch to conclude that one the name is disclosed suddenly the tool would be rendered ineffective, as these tools have been widely reported on for many years now.
Secondly, especially in regards to the ACLU lawsuit against Geofeedia and various Police Department's, using the tool to surveil 1st Amendment protected protests, I think it is in the Chicago public's interest to understand their Police Department is using a social media monitoring tool. I understand that techniques and methods can be harmful to release, but to allow the public a chance to understand the tools police use, that is a different story to me. The public understands how DNA can be used against them, that they can be fingerprinted, that facial recognition technology exists, and that these things can be pulled from a database or case file in a case against them. That police officers carry firearms, tasers, and OC. That police cruisers can lock on to their speed to catch speeding violators, that police can go undercover to infiltrate crime rings, and use IMSI catchers, pen registers, and wire taps to accomplish the same goals. These are tools that police use to effectively conduct their job, and in light of public knowledge, including of brands used, it has largely not harmed police work. I fail to see how social media monitoring tools are any different. It is simply a tool in law enforcement's efforts to conduct their duties. And the public does have a right to understand that these tools exist, and that they may be held accountable under these tools. Which specific brand of the tool CPD is using, should not be relevant and will not effect their ability to use that tool.
Sincerely,
Curtis Waltman
From: Curtis Waltman
Dear Ms. Harper,
I would like to add one small correction my case. It was not a lawsuit against Geofeedia exactly, but rather records disputes that resulted in an ACLU report on the widespread use and abuse of Geofeedia. I will link here to the ACLU report. https://www.aclunc.org/blog/facebook-instagram-and-twitter-provided-data-access-surveillance-product-marketed-target
I just wanted to make sure that was clear. Thank you.
