I'm not talking about random awful things they've done I'm talking specifically about unauthorized access issues which is literally what you named as being the difference. Get some reading comprehension.

Correct, that is the difference between what I said and what the author said. The author is talking about scraping. Get some reading comprehension. You don't even have to read the article, it's literally in the title.

The article is trash, we're talking about your comment, hence why I replied to you. You lied just like the article did.
