CipherCloud just filed a DMCA notice with stack exchange to take down the question How is CipherCloud doing homomorphic encryption? (now deleted by stackexchange).
Since I obviously can't post the full question+answers here, a short summary of what it contained:
The question itself asks if/how...

@D3C4FF but you need @TerryChia to let you in the room I think... or maybe @RoryAlsop can also do it... whoever wakes up 1st... I'm off to narnia ;) T/C
@CodesInChaos amusingly the Streisand effect is now in full swing, it's on the front page of hacker news and the post has been retweeted all over the place. Amazing that companies never learn...
Sheer curiosity, not a complaint at all, but is it possible that I wasn't credited +2 rep point for some edit? I mean, I was complaining that it'll ruin my 1337 rep when I went to edit one post, so I guess what I'm asking is, if it's possible some mod saw that and reversed the rep change? It's now 1347 anyway, some bastard upvoted one of my posts LOL
@ScottPack Possible, dunno because I don't see it all with the rep I have... doesn't matter, I was just curious. So what's the total edit rep one can get? That's a certain percentage of total rep?
I'm curious because of the rep number hunts like the 1337 one we had with @D3C4FF
I guess my next one would be 1390 ... might change my gravatar to relect that, if I find the time LOL (yeah, I know... kids these days:))
> The other way to gain reputation is by suggesting edits to existing posts as a new registered user. Each edit will be peer reviewed, and if it is accepted, you will earn +2 reputation. You can only earn a maximum of +1000 total reputation through suggested edits, however.
Although Google Glass makes the issue look whole new and technological, this is actually very old news. To make it short, there is no privacy in public places.
Indeed, whenever you go out on the street, you show your face to the World at large, opening up the possibility that any bystander recog...
@TerryChia yup just finished reading it. No mention of CCTVs tho. Not all big cities are equal in terms of privacy ;)
@ScottPack OK I didn't do 500 edits ... I'm not THAT anal LOL... so the plot thickens, because my rep scoreboard shows that last edit as accepted and with +2,... but if that was the case, then I should have 1349 points, and I didn't get any downvotes in the last couple of days :O But I repeat, I'm not bothered by rep score, just curious what all mods can do, so I get a perspective on things around here
Anyway, whoever upvoted my aviation answer ruined it anyway... but I did manage to have 1337 on two accounts for about half an hour hehe
@Thomasp Thanks for calling me out on closing the robots.txt question. That's a bloody good answer! @Tildal - CCTV is worth an answer from you as well I reckon
@RoryAlsop I wanted to delve deeper into what robots.txt actually is and what it's good for (basically - nothing LOL), but then I read @ThomasPornin's answer and realized it doesn't even matter. CCTVs... that's not for a whole new answer IMO ;)
@TerryChia It could only work for other people wearing Google Glass anyway... I usually don't have an IP on me to point to robots.txt. Maybe I should rethink that, put some QR code on my tees and similar... or... on my forehead? It should still point somewhere tho.
User-agent: Google Glass Disallow: /
OK, I've put that in my robots.txt for a laugh :) Now... that should indicate to Google Glass that they're not allowed to browse my website, not stare at my tits. Huston, we've got a problem! How do you integrate robots.txt at the root address of a human being?
That CipherCloud thing is getting really weird. They make claims that clearly contradict a screenshot, hinting that the actual product offering might differ from the public demo.
@RoryAlsop I dunno, you'd think these days that the effect is well known, they managed to turn a relatively old question on a relatively specialist site, into something that a wide range of the tech press might see.
"Pictured above, the Sakurajima volcano in southern Japan was caught erupting in early January. Magma bubbles so hot they glow shoot away as liquid rock bursts through the Earth’s surface from below. The above image is particularly notable, however, for the lightning bolts caught near the volcano’s summit. Why lightning occurs even in common thunderstorms remains a topic of research, and the cause of volcanic lightning is even less clear..."
