It could have been incompetence, yes... Or it could have been someone who knew this would slip by the Trump loyalists and end up getting published.

If anyone like me was looking for proof this is actually possible in the files: > Broe's video showed him copying several paragraphs from one document in the DOJ's Epstein library/2022.03.17-1%20Exhibit%201.pdf) from the "Court Records" section. While the paragraph Broe selected includes several redactions, all of the redactions were removed after Broe pasted the paragraph in question into a Word document. AlterNet was able to confirm that that specific document's redactions could be read in Word, as well as in Mac's Pages application and in Google Docs. https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:6yrpknzx7zqsvzfxrljm3q3b/post/3maoa7cssos2f

There is a non negligible chance that some of this was done on purpose.

Maybe they are not stupid. Maybe some junior analyst don't agree with this so they left like that on purpose

Working IT, it's impressive how many people don't understand basic computer functions. Even young people who grew up with technology. I impressed someone by fixing something by quitting and relaunching an app the other day. C'mon… For those who don't know, the title of the post refers to an error code, ID-Ten-Tee, meaning IDIOT. Another would be PEBKAC: Problem Exists Between Keyboard and Chair.

Weren't there 1000 FBI agents working on those files? Shouldn't at least one of them know?

IIT: People who think they're oh so smart. Also ITT: Those same people thinking Trump personally hired the people redacting the files.

It's possible that the right people in the administrator wanted to "redact" them like this.

@GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 2025-12-25 21:28
 if they find out nothing will be released. just pretend you're upset and it will continue happening. give them enough rope to hang themselves.
