I think that the entire net economy has to make new social contracts about price discovery.. somewhere between Debian and Oracle.. for example.. and I support open data generally. But how is it antithetical to make a service for site customers with a login? given high-powered robots on the net and very unexpected guests as a fact-of-life on the network.. this seems more like locking your door at night in a mid-sized town, not some deep betrayal of cause or rank hypocrisy .. no?
