    That is my point. What isn’t necessarily obvious, though, is that the scrapable data is more comprehensive than what could be scraped on traditional platforms

      it may be more comprehensive than trying to scrape other platforms, but the data that is available is absolutely nothing compared to what they collect on their own platforms. they’re almost certainly not very concerned with collecting our relatively mild amount of data.
