Who are we?
We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.
We are one. We are legion. And we're trying really hard not to forget.

i wish the documents would make a difference.
They do to me. Aspire to write their crimes on the stone of their mass grave.
Edit:
and let it be a modern reminder to mever forget who it is we are dealing with
was it written on the tombstones of the catholic priests that were protected by the church?
or the boy scout leaders?
or the southern baptist convention?
Yes! Yell that shit out!
Chisel the epitaphs you want to see in the world
The DA wouldn't care that it was the graves of a bunch of pedo's. The indictment would just read 'Defendant with poor life choices vs. The State.' I'm not going to jail as a martyr for their legacy. Pass.
It’s okay to not want to put yourself directly in the line of fire. Just make sure not to stop others from standing up for us all
And now we see why the world is the way it is.
Not yet.
Cases take time to build and evidence is not proof so investigations are needed for each clue to determine what's actual criminal. These files just released. Give it time.
The files were held by the DOJ, the literal department responsible for investigating crimes of this magnitude.
They've been held for at least two administrations and were ordered released by an act of Congress.
At what point is it "enough time"?
facts!!
it's the catholic church pedo leaks all over again ...
or the boy scouts ...
or the panama papers ...
or the snowden leaks ...
or cambridge analytica ...
did that happen when ti was revealed that the catholic church was protecting predators?
or the boy scouts?
or the southern baptists convention?
Yes. The boy scouts and Catholics have no more reports by people who claim to be victims. Real change happened and no one seemed to care but shit did change. Just because you don't notice doesn't mean things are stuck being the same.
fair and simply because there are no reports, doesn't means that it's not happening.
the men in the epstein list are free in large part because there are not enough reports from living & similarly aggrieved people.
