 ml>>>>>> is webpage spidering illegal?

 MvdV>>>>> Please explain what "webpage spidering" is.

 ml>>>> thank you for proving my point ;)

 MvdV>>> Proving what? That I am not a native English speaker?

 ml>> no... proving that you are ignorant about many things... how the
 ml>> internet works and what goes on on the internet every day being at
 ml>> least two of them...

 MvdV> What it proves is that you were not really interested in the
 MvdV> the answer to the question "is web spidering illegal". If you
 MvdV> weere you would simply tell me what web spidering is, so that
 MvdV> I can look it up in the Ductch laws. But you won;t tell me. So
 MvdV> you are just asking question for the puropse of putting me in
 MvdV> a position wger I can't answer your question and then belittle
 MvdV> me for ignorance. You have played that trick on me before. It
 MvdV> is not the kind of things that make friends...

you just can't seem to keep up and then blame others for your own failings...
the law doesn't define "web page spidering"... the law may try to clarify it...
just like morals and you can't legislate them, either...

 MvdV> Now will you tell me what "web spidering" is or do you prefer
 MvdV> to keep me ignorant so that you can belittle me again?

i'm not the one keeping you ignorant... that is your own doings...

1. spiders build a web

2. internet browser software views the links on html pages
   as a web

3. spiders crawl around on their web

4. internet web spiders crawl around on the internet web

what is so hard about seeing that relationship in the analogies of "spider",
"crawl" and "web"???  one can be said to be crawling, spidering, traveling,
threading, rooting, and many other things that are analogous to traveling over
some sort of medium... seems to me that you need to quite trying to be so exact
at times... there's a time and place for that ;)
