This has happened before. Back when I used to browse the armpit of the internet there were classified military docs that had the same technique used.

I called it. Last week I said this :

I'm hoping for the old “it looks black until you select the text in the PDF” snafu.

reddit is the armpit. 4chan is the unwashed taint.

So that makes Lemmy what? The smeggy bellend?

Huh, guess we don't do self deprecation

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I don't think you're all of Lemmy.

I mean....the left nut, no?

I'll see myself out.

Actually in Europe it would be considered the center nut.

I find it funny that it took a few days for this to come out. That's the very first thing I try if I see a big black box censoring something in a PDF or webpage is highlight to see if there's text under there (practice from reading SCP Wiki and various forums with fun formatting options). Heck I randomly highlight as I read enough I'd probably even find that it was incorrectly redacted without even trying

You can do that for SCPs!? I have been reading that forever and now I feel dumb

[–] Wildmimic@anarchist.nexus 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Only some - default is just black boxes. I remember at least one where the redactions were removed on click per word.

Yeah, but not marked as spoilers - but it was integrated into the story. sadly i can't remember which SCP it was, i am pretty sure it was in Series 4 (so somewhere between 3000 and 4000). I am reading SCPs on and off again, and am currently around scp 4800, so it's been a few months that i saw it.

E: I just remembered one SCP which emulated an terminal, where you were able to remove the redactions by editing the proposed file name to open from a level 4 file to a level 5, that one was pretty cool!

[–] Anafabula@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 2 weeks ago

Some SCPs also have text with the same color as the background, if there is an oddly large space between text.

[–] Trainguyrom@reddthat.com 4 points 2 weeks ago

I honestly could be misremembering. I swear I remember seeing somewhere that fake redacted stuff for flavoring/humor

[–] CheeseNoodle@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

The first set (with nothing but blacked out pages) was properly redacted and in-fact contained no text data whatsoever. I think this is from the more recent files including the ones that were accidentally uploaded and pulled an hour later.
