FBI plan to collect IDs from FOIA requesters

The FBI has a new electronic FOIA submission tool on its website. And guess what? It requires that you scan a copy of your government-issued ID card before asking the government to release documents to the public. As EFF's Dave Maass writes, you don't have to give the government a copy of your identification card in order to file a FOIA request. And the FBI's asking for it might be itself illegal.
