Hi Taylor,

In straightening papers, I saw that we had received a faxed request from you originally submitted on September 11, 2019 for "all emails sent to, from, or copied to Phil Mendelson from January 1, 2016 to Present day containing any of the following non-case sensitive key-strings: 'big data,' 'surveillance,' 'machine learning,' 'CCTV,' or 'automated intelligence.'" I am very, very sorry that this fell through the cracks. Would you still like responsive documents for this FOIA search? And if so, would you be willing to exclude emails that are mass mailings or commercial mailings?
Best,
Valerie
