Wikipedia speedrun: remove 'sex offender' tag, add 'businessman' veneer

A leaked email from 2010 showing Al Seckel allegedly coordinating with Jeffrey Epstein to hack Wikipedia and alter his public image by removing references to sex offender status and replacing mugshots with flattering photos. The email includes technical details about blocking IP addresses of people reverting the edits. Extracted text: To: Jeffrey Epstein[jeevacation@gmail.com] From: Al seckel Sent: Sat 11/6/2010 5:24:51 PM Subject: Hacking wiki again They have all sorts of protection around your "mug shot" picture on wiki, and so, we are hacking wiki now to remove it and replace it with the photo that you sent, which will have the headline: Jeffrey Epstein, businessman, philanthropist BTW, we also took out you in the sex offender category, and removed the headline in beginning sentence from wiki that also stated "sex offender." And, now it just reads businessman, philanthropist. We recorded the ip addresses of the people who were going in and changing our edits back in, and actually hacked the site to block them back in. That's why the site has been stable. ;-)
