      Well, scrapers probably would ignore it.

      Maybe, I wouldn’t doubt it, if true. We live in the age of “ask for forgiveness and not permission”. But the law is the law, and forgiveness may cost them some $$$ down the road. At the very least it leaves them exposed vis-a-vis ‘Safe Harbor’ laws-wise, when some other powerful entity wants to go to war with them.

      In either case, I’m not going to give up my rights just because currently laws are not enforced. Like most things with humans, things move back-and-forth throughout time, and what may be overlooked today may be scrutinized thoroughly tomorrow.

      (And for the record, you’re the bazillionish person to tell me that. The repetition is real.)
