Tx for the info, Ben... nice bit of work....:-)
Just goes to show that metadata works both ways. Nice to know that the
Spanish and whoever else was listening in, managed to get the
information from the White House before the various branches of the US
government, to whom it was addressed, did.
Makes one wonder what else is going on and is to be revealed over time,
now that such information is in the public field....
Metadata, as the security gurus have said, so many times, can be a lot
more important than the content of the message.
"The medium is the message" Marshall MacLuhan...in another context.

Hello,
It's been a long time since my last post and I suspect some of
you may appreciate this.
After Trump fired his FBI Director last week the original PDF of the
scanned documents were distributed through the Press Corps and a
couple of copies were uploaded to DocumentCloud. I decided to take a
closer look and this is what I found:

Obviously this was quickly outpaced by the Presidential Tweeter and
all the rest. For those of you who call the USA home; there's (more)
legitimate concern with the conduct of staffers in the Trump
Administration now too. Enjoy.
Regards,
Ben
