You can compare some of the redactions here
We needed to be quiet about this until they released all the tranches so that they’re all readable but nooo someone had to go and tweet about it.
Happens all the time in the legal field. I once got a document in discovery that inverted the proper redactions. It was a roster of identifying information, all unredacted except for the actual relevant person in the case — that was redacted. 🤣
Redacting with black boxes over text is more common of a mistake than that.
Guys. This is called resistance. These people are govt employees. We go through literally yearly training on maintaining classified documents. This wasn’t gross incompetence, it was fucking intentional. They knew they could do it because they knew leadership was too fucking stupid to check it properly. Believe it or not the govt is largely run by people, just like you and I. We are doing what we can where we can.
THEY DID IT AGAIN
There’s several pages that are just completely black that it’s like they drew a big black square with paint or they just copy pasted the same page probably

they drew a big black square with paint
I have insider knowledge that that’s exactly how this image was made. [OC]
Not all of them are like this. At least one isn’t.
Still
Yeah…
I should have gotten all the files when they first came out. Is there an archive somewhere? All I’ve looked at is the one file that was changed to black out trump sucking the nipples of an underage person. That one had the text data replaced with a “-” for each block.
Whaaaaaaa? I’ve never heard of this.
one file that was changed to black out trump sucking the nipples of an underage person.

Thanks, but I’m sorry I asked:

That reminds me of my marathon days.
What
Raw nipples.
Shirt bounces up and down while running, makes nipples ouchie 👍
What page is this? Or how can I verify it’s real?
I tried googling for it the other day but couldn’t find anything
There’s JMail which shows you his emails as of you’re logged into his account. It also has other pages with files, photos, and even his Amazon purchase history.
There’s a tool called
pdftotext…I mean, are there tech literate MAGAts who would read the Epstein files to test their convictions?
This is going to look obvious in hindsight but perhaps people should have kept this to themselves until every single Epstein file had been released. Because now the DOJ is just going to do their best to fix the problem.
Not that that saying much these guys are the fucking keystone cops.
And if you watch the original keystone cops they will look damn competent compared to these guys.
Max Senate. /s
I think there were probably several people that found this before that didn’t say anything for this reason.
I posted it on here because once it’s trending on TikTok and Bsky that ship has sailed
Yeah, I wasn’t specifically referring to you. I just meant that people in general who’ve discovered this exploit maybe should have collectively kept it to themselves.
If only. This is why I always laugh at the conspiracy theories that involve more than like 10 people, like all the scientists fabricating global warming. Humans are terrible at keeping secrets.
This has happened before. Back when I used to browse the armpit of the internet there were classified military docs that had the same technique used.
I called it. Last week I said this :
I’m hoping for the old “it looks black until you select the text in the PDF” snafu.
I find it funny that it took a few days for this to come out. That’s the very first thing I try if I see a big black box censoring something in a PDF or webpage is highlight to see if there’s text under there (practice from reading SCP Wiki and various forums with fun formatting options). Heck I randomly highlight as I read enough I’d probably even find that it was incorrectly redacted without even trying
You can do that for SCPs!? I have been reading that forever and now I feel dumb
Only some - default is just black boxes. I remember at least one where the redactions were removed on click per word.
You mean: a spoiler tag?
Yeah, but not marked as spoilers - but it was integrated into the story. sadly i can’t remember which SCP it was, i am pretty sure it was in Series 4 (so somewhere between 3000 and 4000). I am reading SCPs on and off again, and am currently around scp 4800, so it’s been a few months that i saw it.
I honestly could be misremembering. I swear I remember seeing somewhere that fake redacted stuff for flavoring/humor
Some SCPs also have text with the same color as the background, if there is an oddly large space between text.
The first set (with nothing but blacked out pages) was properly redacted and in-fact contained no text data whatsoever. I think this is from the more recent files including the ones that were accidentally uploaded and pulled an hour later.
reddit is the armpit. 4chan is the unwashed taint.
So that makes Lemmy what? The smeggy bellend?

Actually in Europe it would be considered the center nut.
Only when you show up
Huh, guess we don’t do self deprecation
I don’t think you’re all of Lemmy.
Actually that guy is all of Lemmy, the rest of us are a hive mind. Blorp blurrp
Blorp blurrp
we’re all so blessed that autocracy is so stupid
How the hell can they not have learned from the countless times this has happened before?
They work only with the best. Musk fired the other ones.
Malicious compliance on the part of some DOJ intern maybe?
That would imply that they are good people
I dunno, I feel like an intern might not be as dogmatic as a political appointee.
“REDACT THESE DOCUMENTS TO PROTECT DEAR LEADER!!”
“Man, I just need college credit so that I can get a job in this terrible economy…”
More than likely, you just had Eric doing these certain files. See Eric was pulled in from field work to help redact. Probably used word 2 or 3 times in his life and hates email.
