And if they are digital, how has there not been any sort of hack? ‘Anonymous’ or foreign actors would surely love to have a chance to air the dirty laundry, no?

    Same reason that Putin’s enormous archives of blackmail materials on the world’s rich and powerful haven’t leaked. It ain’t like they keep this stuff in a zip file on a web server where you just have to know the address it’s at and crack a couple passwords…we’re talking isolated, air-gapped systems and physical archives where you would need in-person access to view the material, and are under strict observation the entire time you are viewing the files.

        oh, how many files are there in total? I didn’t know the total count of all the files the government and the various intelligent agencies has on Epstein was the type of publicly available information that you would need to make a claim like that.
