> Where are all the folks who were complaining about the LinkedIn anti-scraping court case destroying the open web? This is what LinkedIn is fighting against.

I find comments of the form "where are all the folks who were complaining..." to be tiresome. Asking "where are all the folks" suggest that "all the folks" don't exist because... you don't see them on Hacker News? ... because ... you want to make a dig at LinkedIn? ... because [reasons]?

Unless I'm missing something (let me know), this comment seems like a rant based on speculation. Why believe a hacker who says they got this from scraping?

I'm not defending LinkedIn, to be clear. I'm asking for more {elaboration, logic, specificity} and less rhetoric in the comments here.
