Take it easy. artyom might just be mistaken you don’t need to turn it into a class war.

At this point it already has been turned into a class war. They get away with so many crimes and just a slap on the wrist. If an individual does it life sentences. Almost like the laws are made to be broken by the rich.

The article is trash, we’re talking about your comment, hence why I replied to you. You lied just like the article did.

If an AI company ignores robot.txt exclusions and scrapes a site, then turns around and sells that content as a service, is that unauthorized access?

Yes.
