No, but the content is hosted on their servers. Services scraping this content will hit CL's infrastructure hard. It's actually in the interest of their users to minimize server load, so they can browse listings more quickly. And no, people don't appear to be legally free to use other sites as well as Craigslist with the same content they've created. If you're not a lawyer, this is conjecture. We don't know how this will be enforced in the future.
