We keep track of the release of the files, but also to explore what’s already available, and why – with enough exposure – this could bring the man down, and who knows even his regime or the empire.

a lot of it is just going to be CSAM.

A lot of it can't be just CSAM. CSAM isn't something that just naturally happens. Someone had to be the abuser in those videos. There's no such thing as just CSAM, it's all incriminating material. How to release those is a whole other topic because you can't just release the video because it's pretty much guaranteed to contain the victims. But they can blur out the victims, they can just release the audio and cut out the victims names, they can release transcriptions of video etc. We could have a whole comment chain on what would be the best way to release the information in the videos but that's currently not the point. The point is that they could release it if they wanted to, they're simply hiding behind the "it's just CSAM" argument to not release the actually incriminating materials.

You're right, just commenting to add there's plenty of redacted CSAM in the released files alone. I explained in a comment elsewhere in the thread, with links.
