DOJ redacted files can be removed with photoshop. The People incharge of the DOJ don't have the experience to know how to upload files redacted in the wrong format. People are removing the reductions. Sure, it takes time, but they're being removed.

“Donald J Trump had raped her along with Jeffrey Epstein.”
“She was found with her head ‘blown off’… there was no way it was a suicide.”
