Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.
All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body.
If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include not just the twitter.com URL but also Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source (archive.today, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org). Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed.
Mass-tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken Markov chain bot will result in a comm ban.
Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.
Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned.
Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society.

MODERATORS
hacks
selecting the text behind the box and clicking "copy"
ok, "journalist"
If no one else has done it... Coffeezilla just changed .../7/doc.pdf to .../8/doc.pdf and found 11k more pages
Holy shit lmao.
Literally try all the low hanging fruit on anything official from this administration. They're so legitimately incompetent that they aren't even auditing basic security protocols.
with no investigation and little thought I will confidently state they're using AI to "redact" this shit with predictable results
Probably not AI, but they're just not using serious redaction tech that actually scrubs the text and are instead just changing the background color or doing some other really simple things.
the quality of this handiwork is a dead ringer for IT security expert Big Balls
I wonder if they even know how to use the Adobe Suite properly.
did they find anything interesting so far I'm lazy
Not yet, they found it today. 90% are fully blacked out of course, and the rest have all new co-conspirators blacked out. We do know that there were several other people mentioned as co-conspirators though with Ghislane being one of the lower tiers
I'll give everyone a couple days to sift through it, haven't heard anything so far
If the country weren't so damnably hawkish, it would be an incredible boon for it to be run by people so grossly moronic
probably giving them too much benefit of the doubt, but i imagine its supposed to be hacks like "lifehack"
lifehack: expose the global elite pedophile ring using right-click for massive damage!
only l33t hax0rs know how to use computer on a basic level
When a pedophile rapist piece of shit only hires unqualified incompetent yes men, this is the results. The empire will fall soon enough by its own cumbrance and it will be glorious.
Please haul them all off to the pit. 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dyOiE70yqGI some coverage of it. For whatever reason, I had to try on YouTube, vid failed to load, and went through 3 different invidious instances to finish video. That alone tells me the info is correct
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
