In the course of a few weeks last July-August, they requested the same file eight times, generally in clumps of 2-3. Never noticed, because they got resoundingly blocked. But yeah, that sounds like acting on outside information, although it wasn't a new file at the time.

Same behavior, however I don't block them. I was actually one of their editors (now called contributors) 15 years ago when they were building their directory after splitting from go.com.

They offer a couple cool free tools. A bookmarker and a video downloader, as extensions to most major browsers.

If you allow their bot, you might get a little traffic from their directory.
