Nelek wrote: because of the "hacking" aspect
I've never seen a CP employee claim hacking articles were invalid. They may have, but I've never seen it.
My opinion is that hacking articles of any kind are VERY beneficial because it helps us know how to program to protect against those types of hacks.
I don't know why some people feel that teaching hacking is a bad thing.

To be fair, I didn't say that you did. However, you did express concern for the hacking part and I'm making a general statement regarding other people on this site and their concern about teaching hacking.
I think we should teach more hacking. It helps people understand exactly how something is working and how to make it more secure.

That is what it should be, but pity is, that we live in a world where the biggest part of the people who learned about it, would use it for bad things 
Sorry if I am a bit pesimist... I just read the news

That's my point. Bad people are going to be hacking regardless of what CP does. But if CP helps to make our code more secure then it's a good thing.

User and one article are gone; just the "quick and practical example" one to go.

I just added this as plagiarised / spam - but I totally agree, it's complete garbage.
I suspect that it's the original "author" posting it, but I think it's intended to drive traffic to his site (the URL of which is at the top of the "article") though why anyone woudl want to I really don;t know ... everything there is of a similar quality.

Article: Minimum Things We Should Know For Kafka Testing[^]
From this member: N Fleet - Professional Profile[^]
It's a pretty bad article, but ... it smells of plagiarism (but I can't find it on Google), and the link in paragraph three makes it look like spam.
It could be genuine - just poor quality - but I'm reluctant to do anything with it.
Your thoughts, please?

The best information in this article, the link of the other blog. Much more and better explained over there.
I am going for "wrong type". If he changes it to a tip, it is fine for me.
