Bright Data won a similar case against Meta for scraping Facebook and Instagram user information; claims to only scrape publicly accessible data without login.
LinkedIn won against hiQ Labs for using member data without permission, showing a precedent; Meta's legal enforcement against Bright Data was rejected in January.
The legality of scraping data depends on accessibility without login; platforms lose protection rights if data is public; poses a challenge for AI projects.
Balancing between public visibility for benefits like search results and protecting proprietary data leads to tighter content control and evolving privacy laws.
