So everyone keeps reporting that the DoJ has released 3 million files, with redactions.

But… I have all of the released data sets so far, and I’m at under 1.11 million files.

Note that this is using the fuckthissite3 release of DataSet09, and the total size and file count will be a bit short since I kept the lot of 2GB prison videos on another drive for space. But there are only a dozen or so, so that doesn’t change the file count very much at all.

Even with his release being 137GB of the 180GB total reported for Data Set 9… that leaves us with ~40GB and ~2 million files unaccounted for.

So… the news everywhere is saying the DoJ released 3 million files. Does anyone have a file count anywhere near that number? Even half that number?

    fuckthissite3 is also not complete unfortunately, but, whether going by files or pages, nothing reaches 3 million, it’s part of the cupswitching/russian doll/flood the zone techniques.

    But we have some very good people working on this, who dont have a name, are outside the US, and are doing this out of passion and can do it because they are competent, and that’s why we win in the end.

    These are not the tactics of someone who can win, these are stalling tactics of a loser.

      Yeah, I’ve gotten around 300k more files since the post. I’m in a group doing the same thing. Trying to get people to understand why downloading the initial file release is so important when the DoJ is actively removing files and there’s no reason to randomly guess file extensions.
