Curious about doing this
Yea or nay? I don't want to end up being on a watch list because of it

Sounds like a good way to get something added to your file

What good can possibly come of this? Either there is nothing there, or there is something there. Either way you aren't going to find out everything in the file if there is something there. It will be redacted. And then I would guess (maybe just being paranoid) that you would indeed end up on some sort of list. Maybe not a watch list per se but a list of people who seem to be interested in what we know about them. I would guess that being in such a list would only create problems for you later on if you ever had any further interaction with he FBI.

Go for it and report back. Inquiring minds want to know.

It's a sad state of affairs where wanting to know what the government knows about you is considered a bad thing and worthy of monitoring.

SNL did a skit once where Garrett Morris asked to see his file. The FBI agent told him he had a common name and it would be impossible to know which file was the right one. They were sitting in a badly disorganized office.
Garrett gave a list of reasons the FBI would be interested in him, but kept hearing that whatever he said was too common to be of any use.
He finally gave up and left and the agent called in everything he said.

Don't think you can get a file pulled on an active investigation, might as well get it over with and nuke your hard drives, change your name and move to a no extradition country.

Worried about those 3 a.m. fetish google searches, huh?

Both of my sisters did. Both are a good bit older than me and I'm 56. So they went thru the sixties and all that. One of them had a professor that was an organizer of anti war marches in Washington.
The ironic part is that both had similarities in that the people who were the biggest rable rousers and vocal militant anti government people were the ones who wrote the reports for the FBI. Both were somewhat upset in that they were deemed "not a threat as they weren't going to lead any revolutions". That's a quote from middle sisters report.
