Doesn't Google scrape websites? Isn't that the entire purpose of google.com? If that were illegal, then Google would be the biggest offender. The author should probably look where he's pointing his gun before firing it.
It sounds like the author is getting their points mixed up. It is not unlawful to scrape websites but google kind of makes it look that way which is inherently bad. There’s no two ways about this. Google needs to step back from this.
