I remember reading somewhere before that you can stop Archive.org from saving the history of your webpage in their Wayback Machine. Does anyone here know how it's done as I can't seem to remember where I saw it.
As far as i remember, they had a bot and just like you exclude other bots, you can add a line for them in your robots.txt file. Try searching it..
The Internet Archive is not interested in offering access to Web sites or other Internet documents whose authors do not want their materials in the collection. To remove your site from the Wayback Machine, place a robots.txt file at the top level of your site (e.g. www.yourdomain.com/robots.txt) and then submit your site below. The robots.txt file will do two things: 1. It will remove all documents from your domain from the Wayback Machine. 2. It will tell us not to crawl your site in the future. To exclude the Internet Archive’s crawler (and remove documents from the Wayback Machine) while allowing all other robots to crawl your site, your robots.txt file should say: User-agent: ia_archiver Disallow: / Robots.txt is the most widely used method for controlling the behavior of automated robots on your site (all major robots, including those of Google, Alta Vista, etc. respect these exclusions). It can be used to block access to the whole domain, or any file or directory within. There are a large number of resources for webmasters and site owners describing this method and how to use it. Here are some: * http://www.robotstxt.org/ * http://pageresource.com/zine/robotstxt.htm Once you have put a robots.txt file up, submit your site (www.yourdomain.com) on the form on http://pages.alexa.com/help/webmasters/index.html#crawl_site. The robots.txt file must be placed at the root of your domain (www.yourdomain.com/robots.txt). If you cannot put a robots.txt file up, read our exclusion policy. If you think it applies to you, send a request to us at . from http://www.archive.org/about/exclude.php searched for "exclude archive.org" in google and it was the first result.
