 I mean it's public available data, can't they do that regardless?

Google scraping bots don't ask for permission either

 Commercial versus non commercial usage.

If you haven't granted rights, that is an easy lawsuit if you can identify the bad actor.

 Ok but still not clear, how does it differ between the scraping bots? Can i sue Google, pretty sure they commercially exploit the scraped data?

 No difference. You'd need to be able to 1) identify the bad actor that infringed upon you and 2) be able to prove they did you harm of some sort. 

Nobody would likely take that fight to Google because they'd just bury you in legal mumbo jumbo for years. You'd need some law office doing some sort of class action most likely.

 Cool, we should get it going

Scraping bots should pay a sat per scrape. When will we get pay-to-reply on #nostr?
