I don't see any evidence either way for whether or not his "keepgrabbing" python soup only grabbed public domain articles. At the very least, I imagine it touched the landing pages for each article to get the pdf link, where it would also have an opportunity to look at the copyright status. Is the copyright status even on the JSTOR page for each article anyway? Or is it only in the PDF? Let's see.. http://www.jstor.org/discover/10.2307/1831029 http://www.jstor.org/discover/10.2307/1831029 The "rights and permissions" link goes out to: https://s100.copyright.com/AppDispatchServlet?author=Fischer+Black+et+al.&contentID=10.2307%2F1831029&copyright=Copyright+1973+The+University+of+Chicago&endPage=654&issueNum=3&numPages=18&orderBeanReset=true&publication=jpe&publicationDate=05%2F01%2F1973&publisherName=UCHP&startPage=637&title=The+Pricing+of+Options+and+Corporate+Liabilities&volumeNum=81 https://s100.copyright.com/AppDispatchServlet?author=Fischer... ... ok copyright.com is not encouraging at all, that scam is everywhere. Let's try something older. http://www.jstor.org/discover/10.2307/30096268 http://www.jstor.org/discover/10.2307/30096268 The "rights and permissions" link goes out to: https://www.copyright.com/openurl.do?sid=pd_ITHAKA&servicename=all&WT.mc_id=tpd_ITHAKA19334192&issn=00682454&date=1902 https://www.copyright.com/openurl.do?sid=pd_ITHAKA&servi... which leads to: http://www.copyright.com/search.do?operation=detail&item=122798479&detailType=basic http://www.copyright.com/search.do?operation=detail&item... .. where they seem to be selling the rights??
