It's kind of funny to watch Masnick wiggle around on this one. He wants to love web scraping. He's spent his entire career defending it to please the big tech firms that support him. But now he wants to play angry anti-police activist on this one particular use of the approach. I'm sure he's perfectly happy with Google continuing to maintain their image database scraped from the web. So I really can't see why he's bothering to weigh in on this one.
