I think it's a bad idea, mainly because I'd like to see how much traffic my site received. It occasionally happens that I want to read something here, but the server is down. In that case, I always Google the URL. So far, in all cases, Google has spidered and cached the URL I wanted to access.

People would be better off optimizing their site/server. It's a good lesson to see what happens when your site gets a boost in traffic.
