Snapshot
2026-07-26

The entire visual snapshot is self-hosted under content-addressed filenames. Search locally; click any frame for its internal archive record, explanation, sources, domains, and before-and-after evidence. The raw preserved object stays available as a separate link. A missing BEFORE remains missing. Photoshop is not a time machine.

Dataset notes, integrity metadata, and publication rules are available in the Seizure Banner collection.

Curated before-and-after records

These smaller records received case-level review and, where a replayable public archive exists, a separately preserved pre-seizure capture.
