Quite frankly i'm surprised you have the intelligence to turn on your computer. Google has quite clearly explained how to tell it what to index and what not to index. If you made your htaccess file too easy to find, that's your fault. There is no conspiracy, get over it.

i dont trust an opt out system, and what i am hearing is that it could be possible for chrome to assist google to spider content that its spiders cant access.
there is no way i will risk my users information with googles opt out, robots.txt, meta tags, or any other such thing. i certainly hope your own users arent depending upon you to safeguard their data, noob.

If your users are that bloody paranoid, they should disconnect their modem and go back to snail mail.

they arent paranoid at all. its my job to be paranoid.

So... I run a website, that only exists because people visit it... and I'm supposed to enforce my views on Google's browser on them?

I'd rather my ste work badly in Chrome than not at all.

What a waste of time this mod is.

What if Google block your site in return ?

You need retraining

install

if you dont want your site to be indexed create a robot.txt file simple...

sorry, but why in the world should I block people using a certain browser from using my forum? This reminds me of the old days where you could find websites with 'optimised for internet explorer only' or 'best viewed with netscape navigator'. If I came across one of these websites in the past, personally I got angry and stopped visiting this websites. I don't want my users to get angry and stop visiting my website. So why should I block them???
