Big picture, why does everyone scrape the web?
Why doesn't one company do it and then resell the data? Is it a legal/liability issue? If you scrape it's a legal grey area, but if you sell what you scrap it's clearly copyright infringement?

E: In fact this whole idea is so stupid that I am forced to consider if it is just a DDoS in the original sense. Scrape everything so hard it goes down, just so that your competitors can't.
