So stupid it takes them 3 hours to watch “60 Minutes!" So they take it off the air.

If anyone like me was looking for proof this is actually possible in the files:
Broe’s video showed him copying several paragraphs from one document in the DOJ’s Epstein library/2022.03.17-1%20Exhibit%201.pdf) from the “Court Records” section. While the paragraph Broe selected includes several redactions, all of the redactions were removed after Broe pasted the paragraph in question into a Word document. AlterNet was able to confirm that that specific document’s redactions could be read in Word, as well as in Mac’s Pages application and in Google Docs.

Maybe they are not stupid. Maybe some junior analyst don’t agree with this so they left like that on purpose
NeonNight@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
It might be a choreographed “gotcha” too. Like they intentionally made the documents like that so people would think they found out The Big Secret and stop pushing for other files that could still be completely hidden. Idk though, it also seems really generous to think this administration could do anything that smart.
MissJinx@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
What additional information could be worst than what everyone already know. The peoblem in america today is not lack of proof or knowledge
m0darn@lemmy.ca 2 weeks ago
I was wondering that too, fake redaction on false allegations and unverifiable allegations, real redaction on allegations that can be corroborated.

Don’t encourage good people to quit.
PenguinJazz@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 weeks ago
Maybe a mix of both. Spite and stupidity is a deadly combo

A single junior analyst causing such a breach of redacted information would still point towards incompetence on an organisational level. This should really be something every person who works in publishing documents with redacted informations should be trained to spot.

Maybe they print it to check it 🤔

Working IT, it’s impressive how many people don’t understand basic computer functions. Even young people who grew up with technology. I impressed someone by fixing something by quitting and relaunching an app the other day. C’mon…
For those who don’t know, the title of the post refers to an error code, ID-Ten-Tee, meaning IDIOT.

Even young people who grew up with technology.
There is now a middle sweet spot of computer literacy that spans Gen X and Millennials. When you go younger than that, you start running into people who never owned a normal computer growing up and only ever used smartphones/tablets.
By making devices simple enough for grandma to use, we inadvertently fostered a new generation of people who are as computer literate as grandma.
BanMe@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I got out of tech because I assumed Gen Z would be way better at it than I was.
I got back in when I realized, I was one of the generation that actually knows this shit, without having a CS degree even.

I mean DOGE hired dozens of high school and college students running amok with AI in critical systems. It was a pretty coordinated attempt at culling professionals.

There is a non negligible chance that some of this was done on purpose.
leftist_lawyer@lemmy.today 2 weeks ago
True that. We can hope there’s an insider doing the right thing. But, we are dealing with the Trump admin that sent a lot of institutional knowledge packing. Instant karma gonna getcha.
Professorozone@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I was wondering that too.

trublu@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
This is the crazy thing. This is some kind of invocation of Poe’s Law around Hanlon’s Razor. I want to believe this is someone on the inside resisting, but we’ve already seen so many examples of this administration’s gross incompetence that I don’t feel certain of that. It’s this real incompetence? Or resistance as a parody of that incompetence?

this is how I feel when I was on the FBI page and saw the now deleted trump photo before they deleted it. Surreal experience.

Or, normalized. The trump regime are the “radicals.”

IIT: People who think they’re oh so smart.
Also ITT: Those same people thinking Trump personally hired the people redacting the files.

It could have been incompetence, yes… Or it could have been someone who knew this would slip by the Trump loyalists and end up getting published.
leftist_lawyer@lemmy.today 2 weeks ago
True enough. I waffle between good intention and incompetence.
db2@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Both things could be true at once.
But it’s far more likely they’re all just that stupid.
GreenShimada@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Ah yes, the famously super-competent FBI directed by political loyalists who’s only qualifications are heavy plastic surgery and blind faith in an evil idiot.
