Do any site operators actually block non-Google search engine crawlers because being listed DDG/Bing/etc isn't worth the extra cost of serving the crawler? It sound a bit ridiculou…

It's not clear that feeling like a victim is ever a good approach to life and maybe a bit of bludgeoning would help in the long run. No matter how bad things are because of someone…
