If your statement is correct then a workaround would be to perform scraping in a non-covered country such as CA and, once extracted, proprietary barriers are thus removed returning ownership to the individual.

Seeing facebook run ads constantly makes me think they'd find a way to turn you against the courts, and turn the courts against you.

Money can do lots of PR and marketing work.
