Also known as: obfuscated posting
The practice of posting so that nothing in the article headers identifies the content: randomized subject lines, meaningless filenames inside the archive, and often a password on the RAR set. Headers carry no clue as to what the post holds. The tradeoff is that such posts are useless without an NZB from an indexer that recorded what they contain.
