I've never filed a foia request. However, I have seen several cross my desk over the years as the result of various requests by individuals for elements of information they believe they require. I recall some jobs where foia requests inspired shock and awe — as well as fear and disdain and typically go through the legal departments of organizations for confirmation and clarification.
Be all of this as it may I feel some foia requests are capricious and unnecessary but all of them are considered as a matter of the law.

Today is National Freedom Of Information Day. It is inspired by the ideals of James Madison, Jr who was the fourth president of the United States and the "father" of the US constitution, who drafted that document as well as the Bill of Rights which those of us who are patriots hold precious while the leftist libtards wish to curtail at every opportunity the conflicts with their innumerable illegal activities.
It was James Madison Jr's contention that a nation should hold no secrets from the people it served. Dream on.
This is not how things are in the United States because the dirtbags in government feel that they should be able to disclose that part of the truth they wish to disclose.
Shame !
The Freedom of Information Act being enacted on July 4th, 1966 and went into effect the following year.
It specifies and guards your rights regarding information which others would withhold at their whim for even it supports nine exemptions and three statutory exclusions.
Perhaps someday we will throw the deep state, shadow government and most of all the democratic party with all the ruination they place upon us continuously.
Happy National Freedom of Information Day.
God bless America.
I hope we are finally saved from the deep state, the shadow government, and the democratic party of idiots.
