The Craigwatch story
- hardwaresofton 9y agoOP here -- I posted this because I wanted to see some discussion on what HNers thought about this. On one hand, it seems ridiculous for a company to try and limit the freedom of every single user of the application to use possibly inefficient methods only to interact with their site. On the other hand, I understand that a contract is a contract (of course there are issues with enforcability, and "by using this site you agree to these terms" is probably a bit legally shaky), they do have a EULA that prohibits it. That said, something about this just leaves a bad taste in the mouth. Does anyone know any relevant precedent for this kind of thing? To be clear, I have just about 0 ill-will towards craiglist, they offer a fantastic free service, and I use it often.
