There is limit of 500KB of the robot.txt file. You can ask your web hosting provider to upload it under your control panel (root directory of the website) and webmaster will pick it automatically. If you have access then you can upload it from your end. Logged. E-Commerce Web Development Services.

Google currently enforces a robots. txt file size limit of 500 kibibytes (KiB). Content which is after the maximum file size is ignored. You can reduce the size of the robots.

A robots. txt file is an implied license, especially since you are aware of it. Thus, continuing to scrape their site could be seen as unauthorized access (i.e., hacking).
