Also NEW by me:

"If threat actors gave you a chance to redact the patient data they hacked before they leak it, would you take them up on the offer? Read about the Woundtech incident."

I've never encountered any threat actors spending so much time redacting patient data before they leak it -- and even giving their victim the opportunity to redact the hacked data tranche before the threat actors leak it.

That said and celebrated ;), there are things that #Censor is not yet well redacting.

The upstream library #MuPDF (with its #Python bindings in #PyMuPDF) supports by default only redaction of text, vector graphics and images. Testing on a variety of PDF files (thanks to #pypdf, #qpdf, #ghostscript, and their issue reporters, as well as @pdfarranger for their hint) let me discover that some vector graphics are not properly redacted and an upstream issue has been reported for that.

Also, form fields (widgets), signatures and links may be incompletely redacted.

You can find an updated list of “What is redacted? What not?” here: https://codeberg.org/censor/Censor/issues/120

“Better safe than sorry”

For release 0.5.0 of #Censor, a lot of work went into improving the security of PDF redaction.

PDF documents are tricky, and irrevocably removing elements from them is even more. With this release, before saving a redacted document, garbage is now properly collected and documents are sanitized, which means that metadata, page thumbnails, etc. are removed.

Also, vector graphics are now removed with a more strict option when they overlap with redaction rectangles. On top of that, I added redaction of PDF annotations.

The user interface was refreshed: with undo and redo buttons in the toolbar and improved document saving experience. Drawing rectangles is now indicated by a crosshair cursor.

Thanks to the translators, you may now talk also Czech with Censor!

“A historic moment for Censor”

#Censor – the PDF redaction tool for the @gnome desktop – comes now with a new edit history. It allows you to undo and redo redactions using the right-click context menu or keyboard shortcuts. Also, a bug that prevented repeated saving to the same file path was fixed.

Get the new version from @flathub: https://flathub.org/apps/page.codeberg.censor.Censor, and find it on @Codeberg: https://codeberg.org/censor/Censor/releases/tag/v0.4.0

You may now talk Chinese, Dutch, English, Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Italian, and Vietnamese with Censor (thanks a lot to the translators!). If your language is missing from this list I invite you to contribute at Codeberg Translate: https://translate.codeberg.org/engage/censor

A tool created on Reddit to make documents about Jeffrey Epstein easier to read has been taken down. The person who made it said they got threats. This happened because people are looking closely at how the government hides some information in these papers.

Why isn't the evidence handling standard already to immediately redact the victims' information on intake of any evidence? There shouldn't be an additional process later required to protect them from public release.

They are the only names that should never be unredacted without consent. Everybody else involved can face trial.

This is a "lock on the wrong side of the door" problem.
