What does an inverse redaction do in terms of visibility?

The correct understanding is that an inverse redaction makes the underlying content visible. This process involves manipulating the standard redaction technique where information is usually obscured or hidden from view. In inverse redaction, instead of blacking out the sensitive information, the surrounding text or areas are obscured while the originally redacted content is revealed.

This mechanism is crucial in scenarios where a precise representation of the initial document is important, providing transparency by allowing users to see what is typically hidden. This facilitates a deeper understanding of the context or significance of the content that was once redacted.
