Does anything stop the scraper from using DCMA on the original site?
- jasonjayr 8y agoThey'd lose their source of data
- jordan801 8y agoAnything receiving 5k visits a month, is likely crawled at least once a day unless it's told not to. In this case, Google could check crawls and determine the original source of content between the two competitors.
- jklein11 8y agoIf the source that is copying is also being crawled once per day isn't possible that it would be crawled first and appear to Google that it is the original source?
- setr 8y agopresumably site A got popular before site B started scraping it; else there wouldn't be much point in scraping A. There is ofc the scenario was A was a generally unknown resource, and B realized it had the potential to be valuable if you just SEO'd it right.. but there's still probably evidence somewhere that A cropped up first (how did B stumble into it?)

- oo0shiny 8y agoI would think that the scraper wouldn't want the source of their material to disappear, for one.
