Hi, Thanks for pointing this out. I never thought about robots.txt on my keyserver, and sure enough, it was missing. It's easy to add: just drop it in the web/ directory in the skskeyserver directory. I did have to reload sks to get it to see the new file. It's now in place on gpg.n1zyy.com!

Hi, If you don't want your name to appear on Google, don't upload it to a service that permanently spreads it to hundreds of public websites. Especially don't rely on every server admin to "block" crawlers from these pages, because this fails as long as at least one admin doesn't. Have a nice
