    They already can and do scrape literally every website. If you’re putting data on the internet thousands of different companies and governments are collecting it.

      Oh I’m sure they do but depending on what they’re collecting it’s a legally grey area, while this is pretty much giving them permission to do it. And I for one have no intentions of making it any easier for them to make money off me.
