# AI crawlers are deliberately allowed. Being read by an assistant that counsel

# NOTHING IS DISALLOWED, DELIBERATELY.
# /legal/* is kept out of the index by
# `<meta name="robots" content="noindex,follow">`, which is the directive that
# actually de-indexes. Disallowing them as well would defeat it: a crawler that
# is forbidden to FETCH a URL never reads the noindex on it. The legal pages are
# linked from the footer of every page, so Google discovers them regardless and
# would have listed the bare URLs as "no information available" — the opposite
# of the intent — with the noindex sitting unread behind the wall.
# Add a Disallow only for something that must not be FETCHED. Use noindex for
# something that must not be LISTED. They are different problems.
