Default Cloud Flying

Does anyone still do this? It is illegal in the USA but does anyone do
it anywhere else? Be glad to have any info about articles/accounts of
people who have done this.
Also has anyone been able to climb up the sunny side of a cumulus
cloud? Read somewhere that one famous glider pilot did this and he
said it was the flight of his life.
TIA
George (ex-kestrel254)
