LinkedIn has api. So why to scrap?
because they are pulling what they are not supposed to. they are doing it illegally. that's why.
> they are doing it illegally.
ToS aren't real laws, mate.
Edit: oops, just saw a message from the creator of this thing saying he gets the data in the most illegal possible ways. They have no salvation.
It is possible to do what they propose legally tho the "agent" is just the users computer.
ToS are leagally binding contracts. there are there for a reason.
contracts are not laws themselves. but correctly done ToS (I bet LinkedIn does) hold very real legal power.
