LOL this is not how you deal with "data scraping," this is how you deal with a catastrophic loss of system capacity.
You limit data scraping by blocking things a human user couldn't do, like access a thousand posts a minute. This is aimed directly at reducing normal activity across the whole system.
An odd observation, when I was a kid if we were going to have chicken for dinner someone went down to the freezer and pulled a package of chicken out. The same for shelf stable goods except those came out of the pantry. When things went on sale we replenished our stocks.
Both my wife and I were raised this way and continue the practice. I’m amazed that when I talk to people how few do this. Literally JIT inventory in their own home.
Growing up we were far from wealthy. The primary motivations were cost savings and supply chain issues. Those same issues from 50 years ago are more relevant today.
