How Zappos' User Agreement Failed In Court and Left Zappos Legally Naked
This reminds me of some PadMapper discussions on HN where people noted that scraping Craigslist for public data (addresses) was "against their TOS" so of course it's wrong. Well guess what, Craigslist's TOS is a browsewrap and completely unenforceable.<p><a href="http://www.craigslist.org/about/terms.of.use" rel="nofollow">http://www.craigslist.org/about/terms.of.use</a><p>They even have the "we can change this at any time" part that is especially pathetic:<p>> CL may post changes to the TOU at any time, and any such changes will be applicable to all subsequent access to or use of craigslist.
