Internet Sleuths Reveal Hack to Undo Epstein File Redactions
Amateur hackers are using Photoshop to undo redactions in files released by the Department of Justice in the Jeffrey Epstein case.
The latest 11,034-document dump under the Epstein Files Transparency Act on Monday came heavily stocked with blacked-out names and phrases, much to the chagrin of social media sleuths. But within hours, X users had already uncovered the not-so-bulletproof method the DOJ used to redact the information.
“So apparently there are many Epstein files on the DOJ website where you can highlight the redacted text, copy it, and paste it onto another document to read the redactions,” X user Liam Nissan shared in a post viewed 6.8 million times as of publication.
Independent political commentator Ed Krassenstein even posted a how-to video on X, demonstrating the process—and ridiculing Trump’s DOJ at the same time.

Are the ones that Trump would be unlikely to give a shit whether the information stays hidden.
It's possible (even likely) that it's just a matter of total amateur hour at the DoJ, but let's see if anyone actually un-redacts something devastating to Trump before we totally discount their possible craftiness.
Deception, crime-ing, and manipulating (some of) the public are pretty much Trump's only "skills"
