Reddit isn’t trying to protect user content here. They’re suing to make sure they’re the only ones who can monetize it.

Not sure how you’d reach the conclusion that it would harm SerpApi’s case. They’re the ones being sued.

Is SerpApi asking each user for permission to use their posts if they are saying that the rights of the posts belong to the user?
Copyright protects copying. Scraping content does not violate copyright if the content is not republished. Otherwise Google and all search engines would be illegal.
