Does HN not want people scraping HN?

I don't remember the details, but I think pg has expressed some desire to not have people scraping the site, or at least not to scrape often. I believe the justification was that too many bots crawling/scraping the site hurts performance for everybody else. You might try searching the old posts for more info on the topic.

How can I get access to all HN posts?
