Zero Knowledge is something you're most likely going to find in an authentication protocol, not an encryption protocol.
While I have mixed feelings about "No Knowledge", it's at least not a collision with a different concept.
Good on SpiderOak for the effort here. It shows they do listen, at the very least.
