There is defense
just because defense is hard doesn't mean there isnt any defense... if you have a public API someone is scraping it doesnt matter if its against TOS is up to you to be smarter than them... google created on time access tokens so you can pass a secret to lookup one call and one call only
yes its easier to break then build duh... you have to find 1 hole and we are trying to find and plug all the small leaks in the dam that may lead to the catastrophic failure and total breech
tell me im wrong... im @cartercole and id love to argue with you :)
