Snark this is EXACTLY what it is. I recently filed a FOIA over some business records I needed & ran into this exact same thing. This tactic is used all the time when people want to hide their tracks.

Find text LIKE "oba ", "obma" , "obama" , "obarna" , "obma",
, " obama" etc.....

I used to do OCR a few years ago, this is easily done if the OCR guy is not a moron.

Oh yeah, sometimes WHITE SPACE counts so that has to be considered as well. Hell they even make tools that create variable words filters for search purposes....

So I guess you guys saw all the kerfluff about Comey's name not being searchable in the IG report but if you search "Corney" you get all the hits. The font used makes Corney look like Comey. Well, it looks like this was not just a one-off, and more examples have surfaced:

Mr. Nunes should know already what happened.

Go ahead, have another 2yr investigation that concludes it was a clerical error pertaining to spell check program, and corrective action will be taken in the future.
