| 1. Author: ipswichpar Date: Fri 30th Jan 2026. 19:49 Well, having looked at one (randomly picked by hand) I suspect that the journalists are going to be ridiculously busy working through them. They dataset doesn`t look particularly easy to access as scale..... Reply |
| 2. Author: DBP Date: Sat 31st Jan 2026. 00:39 There’s this thing called AI Can rattle through large unstructured data sets like nobody’s business Reply |
| 3. Author: ipswichpar Date: Sat 31st Jan 2026. 07:25 Just saying "AI" doesn`t make it easier to process...... the files aren`t to download. And there`s a small issue of 3 million missing records........ Reply |
| 4. Author: Wotsit Date: Sat 31st Jan 2026. 13:15 People are working on it, lots of them. They have already discovered some nuggets that slipped through the redaction net (some of which were removed from the released files, but not quickly enough.) A lot of extremely sick behaviour has been documented in what has already been highlighted. Some people should be ashamed of themselves for supporting the evil people who did these things. They won`t, but they should. “The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.” Post Edited (Sat 31 Jan 13:16) Reply |
| 5. Author: ipswichpar Date: Sat 31st Jan 2026. 13:48 Agreed. This is the link I randomly picked last night (Well, it was the one on the DOJ link but this will do). I would expect that out of the 3.5 million files then some of them will have similar details. And then there are millions missing. I note that they couldn`t talk to some of those that have reported issues, and some are reported second hand. But clearly some have been reported by some people allegedly directly impacted. And I appreciate that proving a negative is somewhat challenging. But it certainly doesn`t sit right. Reply |
| 6. Author: Dandy Warhol Date: Sun 1st Feb 2026. 08:14 Apparently DoJ has admitted images showing death, abuse and physical harm were removed from the release, let that sink in. I don`t wanna go down like disco. Reply |
| 7. Author: BouncyPar Date: Sun 1st Feb 2026. 09:13 Dandy Warhol, Sun 1 Feb 08:14 Tbf I would hope they would be redacted. Can you imagine if the DoJ released uncensored images of abuse, murder and physical harm into the public domain? We don`t need to see that ****, and it doesn`t need to be openly published by the government. The fact that it`s there is so horrifying though 🤢 Reply |
| 8. Author: DBP Date: Sun 1st Feb 2026. 09:29 ipswichpar, Sat 31 Jan 07:25 c.25 years ago I developed an ocr system that would read hand written finance applications and extract the values for processing. The point is that to test it, I organised our operations floor c.300 folk manually fill in about 30 applications with dummy data. I ended up with over 6 1/2 k docs (each had two out three pages) and i got those documents scanned into images from a company that took about two hours. I’m sure the technology has advanced since then for that purpose. For the last 5 or 6 years I’ve worked as a digital automation and AI consultant, and I’ve done many projects where we rattle through hundreds and hundreds of document images looking for certain things (in my cases it’s usually text based key value pairs like names, amounts, impacting legal clauses, interpreting and matching meaning etc… and action/flag certain combinations. It cuts through all the unnecessary stuff and shoes the user things of interest). The continual improvements in computing, AI and the way we can manage and process big unstructured data (primarily thanks to social media) means systems already exist to trawl through documents and photos and highlight what we want). So I get translating physical media to digital is a hurdle (but doable) and as soon as it’s digital, the next bit is easy. As a side note, that’s why I’m so concerned about digital id, facial recognition, and access to social media, cloud data, health data, banking data because as soon as all of that can be collated - that becomes very dangerous for us all Reply |
| 9. Author: ipswichpar Date: Sun 1st Feb 2026. 10:19 An impressive CV! I missed out a key word in my last point. I believe that they have made it intentionally difficult to access this data. Data set 12 is available as a Zip, the others recently released are not. This might be due to size but why not split into more data sets? Completely agree that it is all doable, just that they could have made it way easier..... and then I get into wondering why that`s the case. The good thing is that those with the technical skills generally hate this sort of behaviour so I`m sure it will motivate too many people to control. Reply |
| 10. Author: DBP Date: Sun 1st Feb 2026. 17:24 I still remember those finance applications well! They were scanned in by a company in Reading and I’d went there from central London with the documents and had agreed I would just wait. Wasn’t expecting to be put up in their board room with coffee, biscuits and a huge plateful of bacon butties - which was very nice, but had to listen to a big sales pitch while waiting… Anyway about an hour and a half later, the call came that it has been digitised and he said he would show some files scanned on their massive monitor. What I hadn’t done was be overly particular about what dummy data I wanted, and that the ops folk filling it in were all young kids doing a pretty crappy job (transposing faxed data into a system) So the first doc had for employment, “Doctor of man love” displayed on a massive screen, and then it got worse! Thankfully everyone in the room just had a good laugh going through i that form, but I was mortified! Reply |
| 11. Author: jake89 Date: Sun 1st Feb 2026. 18:40 The most horrifying bit as the man at the centre of a lot of the scandal is in a position of power. Imagine your country being led by a rapist paedophile! It`s bad enough our tax money going towards a royal one. Reply |
| 12. Author: Bletchley_Par Date: Mon 2nd Feb 2026. 06:50 So where are we? 3 million documents and what have you TDS types found? A call on an annonymous tipline, shortly before the 2020 election from a woman who said she had taken magic mushrooms and could not confirm what was a halucination and what is real. The only way Trump is at the centre of anything is that if he is the FBI informant that grassed in Epstein. There are interviews with Epstein with Steve Bannon that have been released they give quite the incite into this Svengali type creature.  Reply |
| 13. Author: ipswichpar Date: Mon 2nd Feb 2026. 07:09 Well, we have learned..... 1. Trump gobbed off about releasing them. 2. That loads of stuff has been redacted that shouldn`t have been 3. More than 3 million files that should have been released haven`t been, and millions that were legally order to be released were ordered late. 4. That they haven`t released the material in an easy to access format. 5. That a bunch of stuff that was released is being removed. Reply |
| 14. Author: BouncyPar Date: Mon 2nd Feb 2026. 07:24 Ipswich Par, is there a reliable single site for people to gather and discuss the documents? Best I can find so far is the r/epstein subreddit which isn`t particularly well organised Reply |
| 15. Author: ipswichpar Date: Mon 2nd Feb 2026. 07:54 I havent Bouncy. I did think about building some code to download the lot but given the victim`s concerns about their data being shared and the platform checks regarding large scale download I`ve decided against it. I am sure that the reddit folk will be working through it, the journalists will be keeping an eye on that, and they will be publishing anything they or they themselves find. Given so much stuff hasn`t been published I suspect it is a dataset that isn`t going to confirm things one way or the other. Reply |
| 16. Author: BouncyPar Date: Mon 2nd Feb 2026. 08:10 I can`t help but feel the way it`s been presented, in a very disorganised dump of over 3 million documents, has been designed to slow the research by flooding the investigation. It`s almost impossible to sift through everything, let along catalog it, classify it, and create any semblance of a case with it. From what has now been made public, it`s clear that many people have questions to answer, and there`s enough witness statements to at least begin prosecutions, but.... Nothing?! Just drop these documents into public domain, and then leave them there in silence. These documents don`t automatically prove guilt, thats the job of a judge and jury to decide. But there`s clearly enough evidence to bring about the biggest court case of all time, involving the biggest names of our era either as witnesses or accused, and yet theres just radio silence. It`s crazy. It`s almost as if it`s too big to deal with, so it`s just getting ignored. Reply |
| 17. Author: Wotsit Date: Mon 2nd Feb 2026. 09:29 Trump Recognition Syndrome. Imagine the Cultists` response if the hundreds of instances of the word Trump were replaced with the word Obama in these documents. Remember their reaction when he wore a light brown suit that time? Hundreds of documents linking him to paedophila and infanticide would send them into a frenzy. There would definitely be a lot less redaction I would imagine and we`d currently be in the middle of the trial of the century. But it`s Trump`s name which is all over this, like Pedro Don`s hands on his teenage daughter`s backside. “The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.” Reply |
| 18. Author: Bletchley_Par Date: Mon 2nd Feb 2026. 10:58 People who come out badly in these alleged emails. Bill Gates - Filthy allegedly, no surprise at his divorce now. Sarah Ferguson - Seems to be engaged in the oldest occupation of all. Mandelson - Who the hell knows at this stage, has resigned from the Labour Party. Andrew MB - Just more confirmation. Elon - Seems to contradict who canceled his visit to Eppy Island. Reply |
| 19. Author: jake89 Date: Mon 2nd Feb 2026. 12:35 Could Trump have Mountbatten murdered? He seems like the potential loose canon. Reputation in tatters, nothing to lose. Reply |
| 20. Author: Wotsit Date: Mon 2nd Feb 2026. 13:14 Yes BP, Trump isn`t the only person implicated in this. Don`t forget Slick Bill Clinton too. But others being as bad, or worse, doesn`t absolve Don Paedo of any guilt. He`s up to his mushroom in this, there`s plenty evidence of that already, despite the redaction frenzy his loyal appointees have been engaged in since he took office. “The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.” Reply |
