  • That’s the point, my focus is on the “Europe” as a general place, since they need to sync the “law” to some degree, there is different levels, but the base line are the same.

    Most public data, like all the music in Spotify don’t require a cookie. So I could in theory scrape all the Spotify music to “listem later”. This wouldn’t be “illigal”, but if that’s the case Annas Archive should be “fine”… (I know that they are distributing, and this is the fight)

    But, if they scrapped the music, and I scrape we would have the same “dataset”, so if I download the Annas “dataset”, would it be different from mine? So if I prefer to download the Anna’s dataset instead of scrape myself, would this be illigal? They aren’t selling (on the contrary of Google).

    There is way to many questions in my head :(



I’m trying to get to a reason on this, but my point reach to a limit.

I’ve the feels that scraping the internet for public accessible data, like for example open and public music on Spotify wouldn’t be a crime, but the distribution would be. At the same token, this is seem as a crime, while Google does the same and nothing happens, even worse, if this get regulated, Google would have a huge advantage on anyone else.

So, my deeper question is: “Is copyright dead?”
