Seems a bit illegal. Also do not run random scripts from the internet which control your browser. For all we know, they could be scraping your own sensitive data.

It's legal to scrape public websites.

And if you can read Python you have nothing to fear

Read the source before you blindly run anything!

the /scrapers/ folder in particular e.g.

https://github.com/aapatre/Automatic-Udemy-Course-Enroller-G...

If it was closed source or if you are ultra paranoid there is plenty more you can do for safety

e.g.

- run the code in a disposable VM

- run the code one step at a time, maybe in debug mode, or a Jupyter notebook for example

- Wireshark

etc etc
