Yeah, a made-up term that was ripped off from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-knowledge_proof http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-knowledge_proof because it sounded high-tech, yet has nothing to do with ZKP and merely means "you encrypt everything client-side and we store binary blobs on the server for you".
