 |

Somebody is scraping s-spec pages using various open proxies. I have a suspicion that it is done by a forum member, hence I'm posting here. Per CPU-World's terms and conditions policy, content scraping is not allowed. Our anti-spam/anti-scraper blocks such activity, but sometimes people try to bypass it using open proxies, tor and vpn servers, and this really pisses me off, up to a point when I'm ready to block large blocks of IPs. So, to a person doing it: please stop it while it's not too late. Or else...

what is content scraping ?? why would someone want to do this and for what purpose ? Who does this harm and how does one benefit from this ?
I use this site for personal knowledge, I have a great interest in microprocessors I'm a computer enthusiast. I've had around 100 computers and at least double that many CPUs, been using computers since early 80s started on Apple II+, commodore 64 and IBM XT I try to keep abreast of all CPUs architectures from AMD and Intel for my personal knowledge. I have read extensively on microprocessor chip design, theory, manufacture and marketing I've just wanted to know about this fascinating device called the microprocessor
I went to school for Electrical Engineering and was blown away in college Micro Class when we all learned completely how a microprocessor works down to the transistor level the complete design, I picked up on Assembler Language like it was second nature, several students struggle with it.
This site is so awesome |

From Google:
Content scraping is an illegal way of stealing original content from a legitimate website and posting the stolen content to another site without the knowledge or permission of the content's owner.

Hi,
I've made an Excel sheet containing the CPUs I own - I wanted to put in direct SSpec links - but clicking a link gets me an error message. Is this because some precautions are made to avoid content scraping? (error message (my own translation from danish) "Could not transfer the requested informations")
