So stupid it takes them 3 hours to watch “60 Minutes!" So they take it off the air.

i like this one because it was LITERALLY the adobe highlighter tool set to black
That was my exact response when I saw this yesterday
Man that was embarrassing
bad apple FBI redactions
Maybe they are not stupid. Maybe some junior analyst don’t agree with this so they left like that on purpose
It might be a choreographed “gotcha” too. Like they intentionally made the documents like that so people would think they found out The Big Secret and stop pushing for other files that could still be completely hidden. Idk though, it also seems really generous to think this administration could do anything that smart.
I was wondering that too, fake redaction on false allegations and unverifiable allegations, real redaction on allegations that can be corroborated.
What additional information could be worst than what everyone already know. The peoblem in america today is not lack of proof or knowledge
This is a really important part of the CIA guide to sabotaging Fascism. https://www.cia.gov/static/5c875f3ec660e092cf893f60b4a288df/SimpleSabotage.pdf
Don’t encourage good people to quit.
It is not resolving for me
Here you go my good sir, and keep up the fight.

GOOD! (Jk, fuck facists)
Maybe a mix of both. Spite and stupidity is a deadly combo
A single junior analyst causing such a breach of redacted information would still point towards incompetence on an organisational level. This should really be something every person who works in publishing documents with redacted informations should be trained to spot.
Maybe they print it to check it 🤔
oh you would be so so surprised by the things I saw as a cybersecurity auditor
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.
Even young people who grew up with technology.
There is now a middle sweet spot of computer literacy that spans Gen X and Millennials. When you go younger than that, you start running into people who never owned a normal computer growing up and only ever used smartphones/tablets.
By making devices simple enough for grandma to use, we inadvertently fostered a new generation of people who are as computer literate as grandma.
I got out of tech because I assumed Gen Z would be way better at it than I was.
I got back in when I realized, I was one of the generation that actually knows this shit, without having a CS degree even.
You got a Counter Strike degree which taught you all the basics
I mean DOGE hired dozens of high school and college students running amok with AI in critical systems. It was a pretty coordinated attempt at culling professionals.
Layer 8 issue.
I get this reference.
this is how I feel when I was on the FBI page and saw the now deleted trump photo before they deleted it. Surreal experience.
that was my “what radicalized me” moment
Or, normalized. The trump regime are the “radicals.”
true
If you are talking about the photo of the photos in EFTA00000468.pdf, that’s back online.
Is there a collection/description of all the data gathered this way?
It’s possible that the right people in the administrator wanted to “redact” them like this.
Oooh, those hackers who crtl-c ctrl-v are so damn smart!
Back in my days, it was only ID10T. The s is new >_<
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.
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.

Is there any archived version of these files somewhere?
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.
True enough. I waffle between good intention and incompetence.
Both things could be true at once.
But it’s far more likely they’re all just that stupid.
Well even if it were intentional, that individual was dependent on the incompetence and they were right.
Ah yes, the famously super-competent FBI directed by political loyalists who’s only qualifications are heavy plastic surgery and blind faith in an evil idiot.
The leadership might have changed, but the employees haven’t.
Yeah, exactly. The leadership tells the employees what to do, and they do it poorly.
I would do that if given the opportunity.
Oh I get it because they’re stupid
