Turns out I’m hacking every day, copy-pasting text from A to B.
copy and paste is not a hack.
The President raped Children and is using our government to cover it up.
This needs to be repeated over and over until he’s removed.
The only bright part in all of this is that the most evil administration in American history is also the most stunningly incompetent.
Not hacks; incompetence.
Totally called this the minute they were released

This seems to happen every time the government releases redacted anything
The “copy/paste” hack.
Gonna need the power glove for this one.
I had wondered if there was a way to remove the marker or pixel fill. Not sure if really possible but I hope so. This clown needs to go to prison. Over time it is becoming clear his evil and past bad deeds are well beyond pedo seasons.
The „hack“ is that you can copy and paste the text into a Word document.
This administration would be even more dangerous if they weren’t all so incompetent.
The Four Seasons pdf redactor
Should have waited until all files were released damit! Now the incompetent admin will hire 1000 more agents to fix the mistakes.
They’re not hacks—by any definition. There’s an actual tool in Acrobat that will redact correctly and prevent this, but these knuckle draggers were too stupid to realize that. Thanks morons!
LOL they didn’t cut out the parts of the images to be redacted? I’ve known to do that since I was a child. This is an alarming sign of incompetence.
wait, so did they just „black highlight“ the pages on acrobat/word??? i’m dead.
This is how we finally fight back when we’ve been afforded powerlessness otherwise.
„Trump DOJ failed to properly redact victims names from released documents“
That’s the correct headline.
Doin the Lord’s work
If only unredacted-by-hacks evidence was admissible.
I’d love to see the perps in the files but hope the victims don’t get exposed too.
Breaking news, Trump declares control, a war control C control V as threats to national security
I sort of remembered that there was a way to un-redact text! Glad to see the tech bros doing this noble task!
Either they don’t know how to flatten documents, or whoever was assigned to redact wants to see criminals face actual justice and purposefully didn’t flatten them before release.
„Hack“ is a strong word for it
Adobe Acrobat asks whether you want to finalize marked redactions every time you save. Stupid or intentional in this case? Who can say?
Anyone got any summaries yet?
„Hacks“ 🤣 You mean copy&paste?
„Hacks“ = copy/paste. God, i hope for a day that our media are worth something.

This has been commented to death but: what a weird fucking timeline.
So… is there anything new revealed? Everyone just keeps talking about how dumb the coverup is (deserved), but is there now evidence?
Ah yes, the hack called ctrl+c ctrl+v
Yeah, this isn’t a hack as others have said. It’s gross incompetence and negligent idiocy. I bet the persons redacting were using an old and basic version of PDF viewer or PowerPoint or something like that.
I find it interesting the narrative for the cause of this short coming is “incompetence” and not “deliberate”. Consider for a moment the individual(s) responsible for redacting these pdfs felt a responsibility to maybe feign doing their job. Just my take.
yeah „hacks“ just copy the redacted text & paste it in another file
Calling a simple computer command ‚HACK‘ is a bit much. Dude just copy and pasted one of the most basic things you can do.

Let me teach you my secret hacker skills:
`ctrl+C, ctrl+V`
Remember what DOGE found earlier this year folks:
**Outdated tech in many agencies**
DOGE leaders and lawmakers involved with it pointed out that many government systems are old and inefficient. Some federal offices historically chose to stick with antiquated computers and software rather than keep them up to date, which makes operations slower and less secure. 
**Legacy systems still widely used**
Examples include agencies operating systems that are analog rather than fully digital or relying on very old software languages that few people are trained to maintain — the kind of “legacy tech” that can cost more to run and is weaker on security. 
**IT modernization was explicitly part of DOGE’s mandate**
The official executive order establishing DOGE tasked it with modernizing federal technology, software, and IT systems to increase efficiency and productivity across agencies. 
**Broader government IT issues acknowledged outside DOGE**
Independent government oversight reports (e.g., from the Government Accountability Office) also show that a large share of federal IT spending goes to maintaining legacy systems rather than upgrading them — something DOGE and related lawmakers highlighted as part of the case for reform. 
Is this like in Hidden Figures when all Kathryn had to do was hold the redacted paper up to a light and she could see through the sharpie?
hacks = microsoft word lmfao
