Yeah it’s a mystery to me why robots.txt is not used more often. This is a great point

2023-08-12 17:47:03 +0000 UTCI don't understand the CNET taking stuff down, seems antithetical to our modern digital age where deleting isn't necessary and data is valuable. I understand the doing the Google dance, because that's what you've got to to do. But**why not** just have a server script that takes the old articles or aged articles not getting many hits, to another folder behind a Robot.txt... Google would skip it, and it would remain available to readers on the site, running searches, or reading everything an author wrote about a given topic, or maybe when a new topic goes viral and in page link may link to a older historical article. Just seems like a Robot.txt would solve this.
