What it is

Mojeek's crawler. Mojeek runs one of the few genuinely independent web indexes — not a front end over Bing or Google — so it is one of the few blocks that removes you from an index nobody else can put you back into. Its documentation states it obeys the first record whose User-Agent contains MojeekBot, falling back to *.

What blocking it costs you

You leave an independent index that other privacy-focused search products draw on. Small traffic, disproportionate long-term cost to web plurality.

• /tools/verification-methods?crawler=mojeekbot
  How do I prove a request really is MojeekBot? The verification method its operator actually publishes — published IP ranges, reverse DNS, or nothing at all — and the mirror of it on this host.

Every parameter above is a value the endpoint reads, not an address it visits: nothing is fetched on your behalf. Called without any parameter, each endpoint returns its own specification instead of an error. All of them.
