Ask HN: Which websites do you scrape and why?

• Piskvorrr 12y ago
  None - scraping is so 1999. If I need data from a site, it either a) willingly publishes them using an API (which is more common than it appears - but not always free), or b) does not permit scraping. I have yet to see a useful site which does not fall into one of these categories. In any case, either I don't need to scrape, or I am prohibited to do so; I have better things to do than haggling with lawyers over content misuse.
