Would it hold up if profiles were only visible to logged-in users and part of the sing-up EULA was an agreement not to scrape profiles with automated tools?

- bryanrasmussen 7y agoObviously not. Although if you had an extension in your browser that scraped every linkedin profile then it's not automated. If everybody in your office had the extension installed, and you maybe also had a couple interns who did nothing but do linked in searches and hit search results all day long, and maybe hired some people through mechanical turk to do the same thing. Well that's not automated, and slightly more costly but it gets you pretty close to the same effect.
