@evan@internetarchive Thanks for your info, Evan. My main concern is I notice the WayBackMachine has a copy of my websites in 2025, as recent as July, although I denied bots in 2024 or 2023 for all of my domains. I don't believe many companies are adhering to "robots.txt" contents, but Google Search currently is. Unfortunately, the only way to really protect a website today is to require user account login (secure session) to wall-off public content from web scraping.
I don't really think social media actually makes people more social in real life and federated platforms are pretty much the same.
Also here's a few interesting related things I've seen:

Lemmy is making me depressed
I also remember reading once that many tech execs don't let their kids use social media or phones.
