> Southwest even sues websites that display its schedules and fares without authorization

Why does Southwest even have any jurisdiction here? It seems like they won a preliminary case, but don't we have established president that scraping websites is legal, thanks to hiQ Labs v. LinkedIn?

Would love to read more about it, anyone got link to the court case?

Really thinking of doing a startup in scraping websites and turning it into filterable/sortable tables that can be queried via sql.
