-------------------- From: Tom Pinckney <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Subject: public email addresses Date: Wed, 16 Mar 2011 13:03:21 -0400 X-Spambayes-Classification: ham; 0.13 Kind of sucks that this file 1) exists 2) is indexed by google and 3) my email is in i\t. I found it by googling my email address to see what would come up. http://hg.python.org/pymigr/file/e727de0dfeec/addresses.txt ------------ I've asked the website team to see if they can adjust the robots.txt file, but is there something we can do to a) make it less likely that this file is harvested, or b) increase the obfuscation of the email addresses? (Maybe the entire file could be rot13?) ---------- messages: 131145 nosy: skip.montanaro priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: addresses.txt file leaks into search engines _______________________________________ Python tracker <[email protected]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11575> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
