Google added our web pages to their index without paying us. and probably trained AI on our content without paying us. Just returning the favor.


Not really, you have an option to exclude your content from being indexed by Google (robots.txt).

I don't care as much about Google losing money because of ad-blockers, they have plenty of money going around. The real people losing here are the ones who are creating the content.
