SPOILER ALERT: 3taps was forced to pay millions in settlement. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Craigslist_Inc._v._3Taps_Inc.#... > 3Taps and PadMapper were companies that partnered to provide an alternative user interface for browsing Craigslist's housing ads. In doing so, they scraped Craigslist's site for data, which Craigslist did not approve of. Craigslist sent both companies a cease-and-desist letter and blocked their IP addresses, but this did not stop 3Taps from scraping through other IP addresses. Craigslist then sued, resulting in this case. I think you may be in the deep-end now. Good luck with the sharks. Your audacity is admirable but its foolhardy. You based your entire business on incomplete legal ruling without consulting a lawyer I presume. How the fuck would you feel if somebody took your life's work, slapped their logo and started selling it? I'm sure you can see the ethnical issues of this and the legal ramifications. |
