Contributing sentiments towards policy:

52% : Several groups and news outlets asked the court to unseal records related to the search, including the Washington Post, The New York Times, the Associated Press, Judicial Watch and the Florida Center for Government Accountability.
52% : , Reinhart said that the government showed it had good reason to redact parts of the affidavit to protect "the identities of witnesses, law enforcement agents, and uncharged parties" and details of "the investigation's strategy, direction, scope, sources, and methods."
50% : In a court filing, which was also partially redacted, officials argued that five categories of information must remain under seal: information from civilian witnesses who might face retaliation; information about the investigation "that could provide a roadmap for potential ways to obstruct the investigation;" information that is required by law to remain out of the public sphere, such as grand jury subpoenas and testimony; information that could put law enforcement officials at risk; and information that could disrupt the privacy of third parties.
41% : This is not merely a hypothetical concern, given the widely reported threats made against law enforcement personnel in the wake of the August 8 search."
