A new tool searches your LinkedIn connections for people who are mentioned in the Epstein files, just in case you don’t, understandably, want anything to do with them on the already deranged social network.
404 Media tested the tool, called EpsteIn—as in, a mash up of Epstein and LinkedIn—and it appears to work.
“I found myself wondering whether anyone had mapped Epstein’s network in the style of LinkedIn—how many people are 1st/2nd/3rd degree connections of Jeffrey Epstein?” Christopher Finke, the creator of the tool, told 404 Media in an email. “Smarter programmers than me have already built tools to visualize that, but I couldn’t find anything that would show the overlap between my network and his.”

This release of the files always was going to be like this sure. That doesn’t mean a release of the files wouldn’t help. If they were released to a consortium of news organizations to do the redacting honestly to protect victims, and ongoing investigations is a moot point, it would free all of those people from the weight of blackmail.
At this point they are getting blackmailed from several directions simultaneously, not just Israel, the president’s people, and whomever else. Releasing the files honestly would free them, putting the organization controlled by the chief villains in charge of redacting information about themselves was never going to work.
