It is the responsibility of the user. Everyone should be responsible for their own actions. We still allow knives to be sold, and most people use them for good.

Now imagine that knife stabbings became so common that almost everyone started wearing body armor and you start selling body armor defeating knives explicitly. I can honestly see why most people would be upset about that.

I don't see that as a good analogy. There's very limited space for this functionality to be used legitimately / legally - anyone permitted to scrape content is likely able to access the data without the protection measures in the way.

I'm fairly sure circumvention is a (prosecuted!) crime in several countries - curious if you're across that angle, and/or have legal advice/direction you can share?
