Isn't this effectively what Aaron Swartz got in trouble for?

Except I don't think he actually released any of the documents he was collecting. So what Aaron was doing was far less condemnable. This is just out-right disregard for the copyright law.

And I love it.

He got in trouble for hacking in his own country. Something the author of this project wisely avoids.
Breaking and entering? No.
more or less yes.
