To top it all off the email/text had information redacted not by blurring it with paint, but by using characters in the same font with the same line breaks.

I mean seriously, who does that? Only time I've ever busted out inspector to modify a website or tweet or email is to elaborately troll someone with a sceenshot.

Did they really use inspector to redact info out an legit document about an allegedly widespread thing that no one else can produce, or did they draft the whole thing, used strings of 'x' to mark where to blur, and forget to blur? /shrug
