Project mention: Ask HN: LinkedIn sent me a cease and desist for my Chrome extension. Help? | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-01-31
>I can scrape linkedin with a python script. That doesn't mean linkedin can shut down python.
Well said!
Also, what about copy-and-paste? The last time I checked, data could be highlighted in the browser, copied, and pasted...
Does that mean that LinkedIn can shut down the copy-and-paste capability of your browser and/or operating system?
What about "Save Page As..." functionality (the ability of a browser to save a page offline?)
Can LinkedIn shut down "Save Page As..." ?
Also, what about the Print Screen (take a screen snapshot) capabilities of your operating system?
Can LinkedIn shut down that?
Finally, there's literally oodles of software that can be used for web scraping; what follows below is just one non-canonical list:

Is LinkedIn going to shut down all of that, at the same time?
Anyway, an excellent point about Python!
