- Do not state that FD can prove intent, authorship, theft, forgery, fraud, validity, admissibility, liability, recoverability, or case outcome from this aid.
- Verify current service availability, source access, collection scope, document/device state, jurisdiction, and human review posture before relying on this aid.

- Claims-sensitive meta descriptions, titles, headings, paragraph snippets, and CTA labels were omitted or neutralized where they could encourage unsupported marketing, legal, incident-response, admissibility, credential, proof, or outcome claims.
- Confidence: CONSISTENT_WITH for public source routing and topic summary; METHOD_LIMITED for matter-specific forensic methods, legal conclusions, platform behavior, admissibility, privacy, employment, estate, trade-secret, sanctions, deadlines, and outcome questions until reviewed by the appropriate human examiner and counsel.
