Hi!
E-Mail harvesting on PGP key servers can be done with such commands:
http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Akeyserver.fabbione.net+pks+uid
I already receive spam because i decided to upload my public key
years ago. I know its the source, because the same spam message
arrived on all accounts belonging to one key withing seconds.
Those results could be prevented if server administrators would
place such a robots.txt file in their webroot:
User-agent: *
Disallow: /pks/
Why would spammers even care if the robots.txt file is in place? Only
people following the rules respect robots.txt. Spammers, by
definition, are not following the rules.
