out of all the censored things, they didn't think to censor a product key before declassifying it. I wish I could say I was surprised.

    I've only seen videos of it, but apparently you can copy paste the redacted parts of the pdfs. They legit left all of the text data on a different layer.

    I wish the people who found that would’ve kept their mouths shut until 100% is released

    Unfortunately with an error so egregious, the amount of people who found that near instantly was probably in the thousands

    Exactly. I dabble in competitive assessment and the amount of times weve got competitors data because they didnt flatten a file is astounding. The one we try every time with moderate success is checking every picture to see if you can "uncrop" it. So many times the rest of the picture is actually in the file and the crop is just for display purposes. Most of the time the rest of the photo is useless, but ill never forget the time we got the whole process map for their upcoming production schedule

    It's a product key for an old no longer supported* product.
