It’s illegal when a regular person steals something, but it’s innovation and courage, when a huge corporation steals something. Interesting how that works
Honestly it’s fucking angering. So much regulation and geo-restrictions and licensing schemes… but it’s cool that there are data brokers, and shit like this. On top of it all Chrome screwing us with manifest v3 and killing ad blocking on chrome. It’s already in canary build.
Google are actually doing really awesome work with manifest v3. A pimp needs to smack their b1tches around every once in a while to remind them who’s boss.
Data, network bandwidth, and CPU/Processing time from essentially every website in the world, and when you’re paying for cloud power to run your website the cost of webscrapers running a train on your digital asshole adds up QUICK.
It’s why normal human being people get sued to shit for webscraping data from certain companies who care. But companies don’t get sued because go fuck yourself. Kill bytedance.

how’s that Google dick tasting?
I’m glad there are at least some people enjoying this, you know being a bitch to big corps.
Aaron Schwartz killed himself over punishments for less
Should have waited until he was in the billionaire class before breaking the law.
Worse punishments. For far less.
RIP Aaron
They’re not stealing your data, they’re pirating it.
They’re not pirating it. They’re collecting it.
They’re not collecting it. They’re archiving it.
Oh, like the way back machine?
No, that’s stealing /s
Is the problem that wayback machine isn’t profiting from it?
It’s not so much the lack of profits, more like the lack of kickbacks.

Any regular person can scrape and use public data for AI use, it’s not illegal for companies or individuals and it shouldn’t be.
proceeds to download the entirety of one piece to train an AI
It will be the way we have all come to hate AI. Patriot act 2.0
