The email chain I FOIA'd revealed that no one at the Postal Service actually knew why they blocked me on Twitter.pic.twitter.com/1YDV8RhBEz

It took from Thursday through Tuesday for someone to finally decide 'it's safe to unblock her.' Thanks Kevin for making that executive callpic.twitter.com/22LceDpIMD

There is also a secret list of other people who are blocked by the USPS but they redacted thatpic.twitter.com/DL1w4bQqOV

The exemption allows them to redact the name of any past or present customer of the postal service, which, uh, is everyone?pic.twitter.com/jX3HXZG9Iq

Second part of my FOIA was a request for any documented social media protocols. I wanted to know WHY they would block anyone, not just me.

They seem to think they provided that, but all I got was the email thread about my own blocking. Nothing on protocols. So appealing that now
