Copy link

Robotex does not follow redirected robots.txt pages, which can result in pages erroneously appearing to be allowed?. Example:

In https://www.yelp.com/robots.txt:
Disallow: /biz_link

> robotex = Robotex.new "My User Agent"

> robotex.allowed?("https://www.yelp.com/biz_link")
false #correct

> robotex = Robotex.new "My User Agent"

> robotex.allowed?("http://www.yelp.com/biz_link")
true #incorrect
