Google Built Its Empire Scraping The Web. Now It’s Suing To Stop Others From Scraping Google
Last week, Google filed suit against SerpApi, a scraping company that helps businesses pull data from Google search results. The lawsuit claims SerpApi violated DMCA Section 1201 by circumventing Google's "technological protection measures" to access search results—and the copyrighted content within them—without permission. There's just one problem with this theory: Google built its entire business on scraping the web without asking permission first.

I agree. Google will win the search war. OpenAI is a wrapper around search engines as they don't have their own index. www.reddit.com/r/AISearchLa... Even ChatGPT search uses Google index indirectly using Serpapi which scrapes google

The defendant in this case, SerpAPI, seems hella sketchy TBC. They scrape and sell search results, and they brag about circumventing the technical blocks Google tried to put in place. (Put in place in Jan 2025, which is weirdly recent.)
