Google Code Search launched a few days ago, we've received a lot of great feedback, including some about the dangers of exposing security flaws. Our goal with Code Search is to provide a useful resource for developers and help increase collaboration within the developer community. Unfortunately, tools that ease access to information for good can sometimes do so for bad... but it's our strong belief that the positive impact outweighs the negative, a belief
thankfully shared by many of you.
We hope that Code Search will be used as a tool for solving security issues and helping people prevent exploits, since
security through obscurity isn't really secure. In cases where we can help prevent certain malicious behavior, we'll do our best to do that. We're working on some changes already and we're very open to suggestions --
let us know if you have ideas.
Also, for those of you who want to keep your code from being crawled, please
