I like to use a variation of this in vim to quickly see if an html doc I'm working on contains weird characters that I might want to replace with &html; entities:

I found this great little jQuery bookmarklet generator from Ben Alman:

You can just paste this code in and generate yourself a bookmarklet to reveal the quora answers (should work on all browsers).

  $('.blurred_answer_wrapper').removeClass('blurred_answer_wrapper');
  $('.with_signup').removeClass('with_signup');
  $('.signup_cta_on_answer').remove();

It's easy to call it a meaningless interaction, but it's far from meaningless. He's explicitly breaking an implicit trust between himself and the reader. He's saying "Hey reader, I'm watching you."

If you don't think this is a big deal, I invite you to think about a natural extension of this concept: A comment form that sends its entire contents to the server on every keypress.

This, while cool, just seems like the wrong way to go about things. I like this solution or something like it: https://github.com/mindbrix/UIImage-PDF
