What social contract? When sites regularly have a robots.txt that says "only Google may crawl", and are effectively helping enforce a monolopy, that's not a social contract I'd ever agree to.

I had a one-eared rabbit. He was a monolopy.

Only if its model is a Lopunny missing an ear

I was thinking of a short lil bunny wearing a top hat and monocle with one ear sticking out of the center of the top hat but that works too

When sites regularly have a robots.txt that says “only Google may crawl”

Is that actually true?

If so, why would they do that?
