#3Don't only names, addresses, email addresses, account/phone numbers, and illustrations need to be redacted? Couldn't an LLM do at least most of that fast and cheap?

#4Does it matter? Anyone who sees that their favorite politician was part of Epstein’s circle, will simply ignore it. They’ll forget it happened and dismiss it when it is brought up. If their disliked politicians show up in there though, they’re going to not stop talking about it.

It matters. The fact that partisans will selectively ignore evidence is an even stronger argument for more exposure.

I disagree mostly because it doesn’t matter anymore. a video can come out of _____ doing the most heinous things on monday, by wednesday we’ll be talking about bombing boats and giving peace prizes to mass murderers :)

This is learned helplessness. ‘Nothing matters because people get distracted’ is how you guarantee nothing changes.
