I think that this is different because Nitter uses real X accounts for scraping, rather than publicly available data.


That is still a form of publicly available.


Explain to me why that matters at all in an ethical sense. Especially given the scraping / pirating that's gone on by all of these companies in the last number of years.


Who cares this is a subthread about legal advice.


When have ethics ever mattered in law?
