What it is

Fetches a single page at the moment a user or a ChatGPT agent asks for it — a pasted link, a browsing step, an Operator task. One human intent, one request. OpenAI states these fetches are not used for training.

What blocking it costs you

ChatGPT cannot open your pages when a user explicitly asks it to. The user sees a fetch failure. This is usually the last bot anyone means to block.
