[lean mauve]

i am sorry i didnt see it 😅

[proven lily]

is there any alternative?

[real totem]

check whether there is any api

[dim sonnet]

A lot of scraping today 😅

[proven lily]

nope didnt found

[real totem]

you may need to use something else then 🤔

[dim sonnet]

Then the safest thing to do is to not scrape that site

[real totem]

also expect api to be paid

[proven lily]

why cant we bypass cloudfare

[real totem]

they have put it because they dont want you to do that

[dim sonnet]

That’s basically committing a crime, as the cloud fare was put there to restrict users from accessing the information via scraping/automation.

[proven lily]

oh ,but why is there many tutorial and vlogs on bypassing cloudfare then

[lean mauve]

because they dont care about the rules
