Data encoding problem: text is stringified-bytes like "b'JEANNE D\xe2...'"

#10
by yaakov - opened

I added a parallel bug report on Github: https://github.com/Breakend/PileOfLaw/issues/17

The credit card agreements scraping process apparently produced binary data that is stored in text strings like "b'JEANNE D\xe2\x80\x99ARC CREDIT UNION\n...'".

Note that this is a str that contains the representation of binary data, not binary data itself (as binary data cannot be stored in json).

I noticed this in the first ten lines of the file data/train.cfpb_cc.jsonl.xz and suspect that it affects all the records in that file.
