So, this looks pretty damn awesome, and I want to try it out yesterday! Seems like a lot of people are worried about privacy, and I guess I understand that. But I want this for when I'm learning a new language, and I honestly don't much care what happens with that code.
Also I think people are way too worried about their code. It's vanishingly rare that _the code_ is where the value in a business is. "But if I had Google's source code, I could run my own search engine and put them out of business!" Really? Could you? Because last I checked, Google has more engineers working on search than any other company on the planet. The stuff they do next week is probably going to improve their code more than what you would do by yourself for the entire year. And that's just the code, there's far more to search than algorithms.

The problem is that most of us work somewhere where we write code that isn't ours, and as such continued employment is contingent on us following the policies of the company. This generally include not sharing proprietary code.
