From Ammoland:

On March 12, 2025, lawyers for GOA filed a motion to lift a protective order that has been in place since September 18, 2023. The order was put into place after GOA filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request with the ATF in 2021, “seeking records about a secret government surveillance program which unlawfully and unconstitutionally monitors and records the firearm purchases of American citizens who are perfectly eligible to purchase and possess firearms.” The ATF finally relented and handed over the documents, but instead of giving the redacted documents, the Bureau supplied the documents with without redactions. The ATF tried to “claw back” the documents by demanding that all documents be returned and copies be destroyed. GOA refused to give in to the ATF’s demands.
