Doesn't seem reasonable to me at all. If you do not wish someone to visit your public website, you have to close it to them e.g. by revoking their login credentials or blocking their IP address. Or, don't make your page public---there are plenty of technologies to connect people that do not involve public web pages.
We can also look at it the other way round. Let's check whether Facebook will be convicted of a violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act if they continue to track any data related to a person (e.g. obtained from embedded Like buttons or images uploaded by FB users) after that person has send them a cease & desist letter...
- overlordalex 10y ago> or blocking their IP address It's mentioned in the article that Facebook DID block their IP. Power simply changed it and continued.
- greggman 10y agoI've never used Facebook's API but I assume each server/app that wants to access it has an API key specific to that server/app. Couldn't Facebook just revoke the key? Or change its permissions?
