What it's 'about' (according to one side) and the law involved are 2 separate things. When I buy something from the supermarket, they add charges and make it difficult for the manufacturer to contact me directly, so that isn't illegal. Many things with bad outcomes are legal. Breaking the terms of service of the site may be illegal, and if you're mis representing yourself to log in, even more so. But then you're also moving away from what I would term screen scraping.
