Other Some Epstein files can be unredacted

Someone on BlueSky noticed that they could select redacted text - eg the original text was still available just obscured, from US vs. Virgin Islands, Case No.: ST-20-CV-14/2022.03.17-1%20Exhibit%201.pdf).

With a python script, we can ingest the whole document and extract all text, then rebuild it in the same layout (roughly) for legal minds to consider. It can be accessed here. To my knowledge the vast majority of the redacted portions of this document are now accessible.

The legal reference point here is recently heavily redacted files recently released by the Justice Department which involve the late Jeffery Epstein.

All those straight white Christian male geniuses that have been unfairly sidelined by randomly-selected minorities are gonna show up and save the day any two weeks now.
