A Bitty Bot Bites A Bit Off

Okay, so there's nothing incriminating there that's not public knowledge. And truth be told, the information is very sparse, at best. I expect something like that from a bot. But according to
kitesareevil, who read it at Clairvoyant Wank, FanHistory.com is going to start using bots to scour LiveJournal, too.
I'm not sure if this'll be a good thing or a bad thing. After all, my membership in various LJ communities is no secret. Nor is my participation in certain LJ communities. And the bot won't be able to scrape protected entries, screened comments, etc.
Any public entries, I don't mind if they wind up in Google or elsewhere. That's why they're public. So much the better if it gets me attention (I hope).
Well, this is interesting.
