Is scraping wrong that, is the question.

It sure seems like the evidence doesn't point to scraping to me.

> The data had been pulled by abusing the platform’s find-friends feature

Sounds like the find-friends feature shouldn't allow access to the majority of that data unless the "friend" accepts, don't think the "scraper" got 7mil accepts just because they had access to emails... To me this is 100% a breach, even more so because its already happened once years ago to 700k, and they changed nothing to prevent it.
