I totally agree that you are irrelevant to the case and that I ought not be required to disclose your information.

However, if you want me to not disclose your information — and everything you've ever posted — then please send me an objection.

I don't have the right to object on your behalf. I can say that it's unreasonably broad, ambiguous, irrelevant, disproportionate, burdensome, etc. for me. I might even be able to assert my own 1st Amendment right of association. I intend to fight the request as much as I can. But I can't assert your right to privacy.

I didn't make the request for no reason. If you want me to be able to object on your behalf, I need something formal from you with which to do so.

I think a claim that the AUSA is trying to make you jump through hoops just to increase the paperwork load for no good reason is suggestive of harassment. I would at least insert that commentary in any response. The judge might agree.
