| Jan 10, 2018 at 10:56 | comment | added | jdwolf | I used my browser cache to see the current questions posted by the user superuser.com/users/766703 "Black Guy" and then edited out the keys. I assumed this was a tactic to get those keys promoted in SEO but the user seemed perturbed then deleted their posts. I assumed this was because they realized what they were doing wouldn't work on this site. Nevertheless I edited them out in case the site changes in the future. | |

| Jan 6, 2018 at 16:33 | comment | added | iBug | @DavidPostill You may want to get rid of revision 4 as well. | |
| Jan 6, 2018 at 16:31 | comment | added | iBug | @DavidPostill You sure you did them all? There's more than one revision that needs redaction in each of the two posts. | |
| Jan 6, 2018 at 16:31 | comment | added | DavidPostill Mod | @iBug You can if you want, but flagging is fine as well. | |

| Jan 6, 2018 at 16:27 | comment | added | DavidPostill Mod | Thanks for the report. All redacted. | |

| Jan 6, 2018 at 16:04 | comment | added | Videonauth | Hopefully getting an official statement as answer. I'm curious what will be the right way of action in such cases as it is actually promoting software piracy/or be an act of software piracy. | |
