Ian Carroll describes his use of 40 automated bots to scrape the DOJ website for over a million files from the Epstein dump. He suggests the DOJ intentionally made the documents difficult to access by not providing a bulk download option. Carroll notes that the speed at which some journalists published stories suggests they may have had advanced knowledge of the release.

Mike Adams analyzes the language in DHS documents, noting that while they claim to forbid "impermissible discrimination," they implicitly allow "permissible discrimination" against certain groups. He explains that alternative media figures were deplatformed not just to silence them, but to prevent AI models from "scraping" their data during training. This ensures that future AI systems are programmed with a "woke" bias.
