   • Block all crawlers from your website
6. Why might a creator block GPTBot but allow OAI-SearchBot?

   • Because OAI-SearchBot trains models faster
   • Because GPTBot is only used for images
   • To remove the site from all search engines
7. In the EU, what gives rights holders a legal basis to opt out of text and data mining?
   • A requirement that every AI company buy a license

   • It is legally required
   • It deletes already collected data
   • User-agent strings can be faked, and servers can verify IP ranges or detect bots
