Many mailing lists have searchable archives without these archives being open to the public and to Google. I'm not against searchable archives, on the contrary, but I'm against having all our exchanges indexed by Google. I realize of course it's not up to me to decide. But I find this constant tracking and publishing of all our words terrifying, and a bit too big-brotheresque to my taste. Not to mention the amount of spam it generates.
I gather you don't spend much time on the Usenet then? To me, having all our messages on file archived and tallied somewhere just seems normal, whether I like it or not.
For what it's worth, I guess my preference would be that the Finale List archives remain google-able, but it's only a slight preference. It's not something that I care about enough to lobby for.
