The long-awaited disclosure of the Jeffrey Epstein investigative files has arrived, but the resulting digital fallout suggests the public feels more deceived than informed. Instead of the transparency many had campaigned for, the release has sparked a firestorm of criticism over the heavy-handed use of the literal black pen.
Over a hundred pages from the Epstein files are redacted, leading many to wonder 'what was the point' of releasing them in the first place. The move also sparked various rumours as to why the Department of Justice decided to hide most of the files.
