Should we block OpenAI from scrapping the server? (platform.openai.com)

Right now, robots.txt on lemmy.ca is configured this way

User-Agent: *
  Disallow: /login
  Disallow: /login_reset
  Disallow: /settings
  Disallow: /create_community
  Disallow: /create_post
  Disallow: /create_private_message
  Disallow: /inbox
  Disallow: /setup
  Disallow: /admin
  Disallow: /password_change
  Disallow: /search/
  Disallow: /modlog

Would it be a good idea privacy-wise to deny GPTBot from scrapping content from the server?

User-agent: GPTBot
Disallow: /

Thanks!

I would have thought so too, but == failed the syntax check

You actually want ~ though because GPTBot is just in the user agent, it's not the full string.
