It seems very clear to me there is valid use for this mod and potential for abuse. If you use this mod to restrict what googlebot can see you're 100% in the clear. If you use this mod to give googlebot access to private forums then you are playing with fire.
That said I don't care about googlebot, I'm wondering does anyone know how I could use this mod to give only the google adsense bot access to "private" forums? Basically I want ad-sense to act like a logged in registered user, this is not against any TOS, in fact it is encouraged. Google's own authentication/log in system doesn't seem to work with vBulletin.
