What amaze me is all these websites like Expedia or Airbnb that would open MCP api when they carefully prevented for years scraping and equivalent things.

Nowadays, a lot of things that people are impressed by agents doesn't even really need AI but just a way for us to get data and api access back to (web)app. Something we more commonly used to have like 15 years ago.

For example, when looking at possible destination for a trip, I would just need to be able to do the given request without spending one hour on the website.
