Really cool Anil! I can see this dramatically reducing the time it takes and the costs incurred for a government's response to a Freedom of Information Act request.

I appreciate it, and you are exactly right. Most governments take anywhere between two to 10 days to even acknowledge a FOIA request. If they are doing anything about social media, then they have to scour through folders of screenshots to find the "record".
