It’s just a robots.txt flag that explicitly mentions a google user agent string. This is about as effective at stopping AI from training on your data as a “no trespassing” sign hidden behind the hedges of your unfenced lawn is at stopping trespassers.
Ur just a robots.txt ;)
Edit: heh, ad robotinem
We could put it on the various Lemmy sites, but it's even more ineffective because of federation.
Not sure what the analogy would be in that case, and infinite number of people get to decide if that sign exists on your lawn?
edit: An infinite number of people have a copy of your lawn, and they need to put a sign on it
I’ve always been told the Robots file is pretty much just a suggestion.
