I would like to know how to get around capchas. Who puts them in? There are financial incentives other than what the site owner or admin might make by explicitly trying to protect "their" data, it seems to me.
Its either public on the Web or it's not.
Data on the Web belongs to no-one, especially when folk are trying to make money (Gain energy) from it, by charging folk for access to it, thus forcing everyone accessing to gain energy in turn from others, who then have to get the energy to source it all from the planet. So it should be illegal to charge for data access, imho, because ultimately it adds to the planetary destruction.
