You realize that there have been multiple websites scraped, right? So decentralizing doesn't solve this issue in particular. Especially when federated sites like Lemmy provide a view of the entire fediverse (more or less).
This is orthogonal to what I'm talking about. I don't see scraping as a problem.
The person you were replying to was talking about scraping.
A reaction developed because of there often being some "eat the rich" types thinking they don't need brain because they have taken the right position.
