Tor and proxies solve that problem pretty nicely from experience.
Not saying this is right, but if the service provider wants to play cat and mouse then I’m happy to take part.

My point is, you can’t just put content online and expect to put restrictions on how I send the HTTP requests for it on my side. And if you think you can well I’ll do my best to prove you wrong.
Edit: I totally agree that the data they’re giving me is their property and I merely have a license to use it. I’m not advocating for copyright infringement or anything like that. But if the license allows me to use the content for X purpose, then the way I request the content (whether through a browser or a scraper) shouldn’t matter.
