Interesting, thanks for the anecdote!

> The biggest factors preventing governments from stonewalling every FOI case are generally time and money.

Is there any backpressure in the system to make the employee(s) responsible for responding/signing off on the disclosure actually care about how expensive it is to fight a case? I would've thought they would think, "Well, the litigation cost doesn't affect me, I just approve/deny requests based on their merits."
