I absolutely agree. If something is publicly accessible then the public should be able to use it as they see fit, from my viewpoint. (A HTTP response has already authorised you to copy the data to a machine. How can it be bound by a TOS that you need to access the original page to find?)

However, Google doesn't agree and the current court precedent doesn't either. So I tried to address the parent's concern from that viewpoint.
