The Internet reported that a cryptocurrency lawyer sued the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, claiming that the department may know who the creator of Bitcoin was-and asked the department to share what it knew. The Freedom of Information Act lawsuit was filed by James Murphy based on claims made by Homeland Security Special Agent Rana Saoud at an April 2019 meeting. Sood said at the meeting that several of her colleagues had previously met with four people involved in creating Bitcoin. "My Freedom of Information Act lawsuit only requires notes, emails and other documents related to the alleged meeting," Murphy said in a post on X after announcing the lawsuit on April 7. "If that meeting did happen, as DHS agents claim, then there should be a record of the meeting's content," added Murphy, who uses the "MetaLawMan" username on X.
