To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act, I hereby request the following records:
1. Documents mentioning, describing or generated in response to the CommuteAir leak, the preceding hack or subsequent fallout, including but not limited to:
* Damage assessments
* Emails
* Interagency communications (local, state, or federal)
* Communications with the press about the CommuteAir leak
* Communications with Twitter or other social media or sharing platforms
2. Documents mentioning or describing "Tillie Kottmann" or "maia arson crimew."
You may limit this request to records generated between January 19, 2023 and the present.
The "CommuteAir leak" refers to documents from the Terrorist Screening Database that were posted on a public server belonging to the airline CommuteAir, and forwarded to media outlets by the security researcher maia arson crimew, formerly known as Tillie Kottmann. The leak was first reported by the Daily Dot on January 19, 2023: https://www.dailydot.com/debug/no-fly-list-us-tsa-unprotected-server-commuteair/
A spokesperson for CommuteAir told the Daily Dot that the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency was informed about the leak. Spokespeople for the Transportation Security Administration and Federal Bureau of Investigation have also acknowledged that their agencies are also aware of the reported cybersecurity incident.
If any part of these documents are exempt from disclosure, please be sure to review and release all reasonably segregable nonexempt portions of responsive documents, as the FOIA requires.
The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.
In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.
Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires.
Sincerely,
Matthew Petti
