Good Contact Hygiene

Use published email addresses, public comment processes, official forms, ordinary mail, or records-request systems. Do not misrepresent who you are or why you are writing.

Clear No-Go Boundary

Do not automate mass outreach, send unsolicited attachments, probe networks, stress-test systems, trigger sensors, or attempt to interact with monitoring infrastructure. Public contact is not a signal-tripping exercise.

Records Requests Are Specific

FOIA and public-records channels are for records requests. Keep requests focused, lawful, and relevant; do not use them as casual greetings or pressure tactics.

Petition Is A Right

People may ask questions, file public-records requests, attend meetings, submit comments, contact representatives, and speak plainly to institutions. Lawful civic contact should not be stigmatized as suspicious by default.

Use The Channel For Its Purpose

A records portal is for records requests. A public comment form is for comments. A press address is for press inquiries. Respecting the channel keeps contact legitimate, legible, and easier to defend.

Document Without Drama

Keep copies of what you send, dates, responses, and public records received. Good civic work is boring in the best way: truthful, dated, organized, and reviewable.

No Infrastructure Interaction

Do not scan, probe, stress test, attach suspicious files, automate floods, or attempt to make a system notice you. The lawful path is speech and records, not technical provocation.

No Mass Agency Greetings

Petition is a right, but automation, flooding, ambiguous attachments, signal theater, and attempts to provoke monitoring systems make ordinary speech harder to defend. Use the channel for its purpose and keep the record clean.

Safe Harbor Means Authorization

Security research and vulnerability reporting belong inside authorized disclosure channels and stated rules. 2IA does not treat curiosity, art, or politics as permission to probe infrastructure.

Proudly Civil-Libertarian

Lawful public intelligence for human freedom. Speech, press, petition, assembly, privacy, due process, anonymity, public records, correction, and oversight are the operating standard for every 2IA public page.
