don't know why there're few discussions here, for me there is a lot of interesting information in those files.

it seems like people care more about elon musk than a random member of a random anti-cuban group backed by [redacted], who said "as soon as we or they take care of Kennedy"

or the CIA put a contaminating agent in Cuban sugar headed for the Soviet Union

or that the leader of Hungarian Freedom Fighters was a CIA asset

A lot of interesting information is not what I think many people really want. They don't seem to want the mundane facts, they don't seem to care about other countries, they seem to want to find salacious details that confirm conspiracy theories, details that would make headlines and be able to use for clickbait titles to further engagement. Having to trawl through lots of data to find anything of use is beyond most peoples attention span in my experience.
