Epstein survivors sue DOJ and Google for privacy breaches in released files

A class-action filed in Northern California accuses the Justice Department and Google of exposing victim-identifying information in Epstein-related files released in 2025–26, allegedly outing about 100 survivors and enabling further publication by Google. The DOJ says it has removed documents flagged for redaction and continues reviewing for privacy protections, while survivors say the ongoing online publication and low redaction accuracy retraumatizes victims and endangers them.
