Are code obfuscation techniques off topic on this site?

Question

In questions like: Obfuscating JavaScript code are treated some aspect of obfuscation of scripting languages, but not the obfuscation techniques for themselves (es. How can I produce obuscated code ?).

Obviously, a lot of members of this community are highly skilled in this field; probably it's the most relevant one. Is the topic accepted here ?

Answer 1

Depending on the details of the question, I'd say that the techniques for how to code something falls under a "programming" question and not a security question.

Questions dealing with the impact or efficacy of obfuscation would be on-topic here.
