What is YaCy Bot?
YaCybot is the web crawler used by the YaCy search engine, an open-source, decentralized search platform. Unlike traditional search engines that rely on centralized servers, YaCy operates as a peer-to-peer network where each participant runs their own instance of the software. YaCybot systematically visits and indexes web pages, contributing the collected data to the distributed network. This approach aims to provide privacy, censorship resistance, and independence from centralized control. YaCybot respects robots.txt directives and is primarily used by individuals and organizations interested in decentralized web search.
