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,

Hello, I've realized that I forgot to put a fee waiver request in my initial request. Apologies for that.

I request a waiver of all fees for this request. Disclosure of the requested information to me is in the public interest because it is likely to contribute significantly to public understanding of the operations or activities of the government and is not primarily in my commercial interest. The functions of the Clearview AI program in relation to the FBI will significantly contribute to public understanding of government technology, private contractors, and how it relates to privacy.

Thank you very much, and apologies again for forgetting the fee waiver in my initial request.
