FBI Rejects FOIA Request for Carrier IQ Info

The FBI has denied a request for the release of information regarding its use of Carrier IQ’s software. The request under the Freedom of Information Act was filed Dec. 1 by Michael Morisy, co-founder of MuckRock. Morisy asked the FBI for any manuals, documents or other written material it might have related to the FBI’s use of data gathered by Carrier IQ. The FBI said releasing the information could interfere with ongoing law enforcement operations. The response does not make it clear whether the agency is using Carrier IQ for investigative purposes, or whether the documents it has, are related to an investigation.”]
