Is Web Scraping Legal in 2026? A Practical Guide
Authoritative legal overview covering: hiQ v. LinkedIn (public data scraping is generally lawful in the US), CFAA limits (don't bypass authentication mechanisms you weren't authorized to access), GDPR considerations for EU personal data, robots.txt (advisory, not legally binding), and ToS clauses (civil risk, not criminal).
