Totally not a lawyer here, but my impression of laws like CFAA is that it revolves around unauthorized access of resources. If the only resources you access are those for which you have authorization, you might be all right.

After edit: "you might be all right." was a poor choice of words. If you piss off the wrong people, you won't be all right.

Aaron Swartz would likely beg to differ.

Added an after edit. I don't mean to say "you'll be fine, go ahead." But Swartz's case was a bit different that the hypothetical described above.
