The Bitcoin whitepaper is hidden in every modern copy of macOS

The article reports that a PDF copy of Satoshi Nakamoto's Bitcoin whitepaper ships with macOS from Mojave (10.14.0) through Ventura (13.3), but not High Sierra (10.13) or earlier. The file, simpledoc.pdf, sits in the Image Capture VirtualScanner.app resources and can be opened via Terminal, and it is used as a sample document for a device called "Virtual Scanner II." The author could not determine why it is included, though Reid Beels suggested it may power the "Import from iPhone" feature. According to 9to5Mac, the file was removed in macOS Ventura 13.4 beta 3.
