So they didn't release all the files, and they didn't make it searchable. That's two really important parts of the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Drag the felon to jail already...
Since I don't see a link here, the new files are at
https://justice.gov/epstein
Aaand they also only released under 4k documents instead of the "several hundred thousand" they said they would be releasing today.
Is there any reason someone can't scrape the files and then make them more easily accessible/searchable?
Is it illegal or something?
I don't see how it would be illegal at all. I think it would take a lot of time, since there are supposedly hundreds of thousands of documents released and a lot of it is handwritten reports, entries, etc. That's not to mention any audio files that might have been released too. But they clearly didn't even try. I should get results for "Barak" (former Israeli PM, alleged to be the sadistic pedophile rapist mentioned in Giuffre's book)
EDIT: Apparently, Trump's DOJ lied again. Instead of the "several hundred thousands pages" they advertised today, it's just under 4k.
CBS:
I mean... The pro LLM people must surely have a tool to do OCR and analyse natural language of documents... I personally don't trust these that much, but they surely do much more than me.
As expected, not much in it. Just vacation photos and bill Clinton.

___In the style of a heavily redacted page, everthing is redacted. Except for three words at different parts of the documents. The three words are: IMPEACH THE MOTHERFUCKERShocked... Shocked, I say!
