The problem is with Google not with StackOverflow letting people read their stuff. A search engine which does not prioritize pages with advertisements and broken Google-powered translations (yes the french version of those SO/GH sites are hilarious) will filter that crap out.
I mean anyone who'd like to crawl/scrap a website can do it from home, with the help of friends, or by renting "resential VPN" services for a few bucks a month. Blocking Tor does not prevent scrapping.

Google should definitely resolve this problem on their side, but language models got huge and complex. It's hard to tell (especially with their scale) if a website if composed from paraphrased content of 20 other websites. I'm kinda shocked how successful those "doorway pages" are at reaching the top and how long they live there.
