HIT IT wrote: It isn't immoral on it's own, just in some cases it is. Then it's definitely not immoral in this case. There is no obligation of any kind upon anyone to not datamine. All there is is a request. If people ignore the request, they have not violated anything in doing so. The only in which an individual could be chastised is if they had a poor motivation for doing so, such as posting the information simply to spite Toby for making the request in the first place. But this is not immoral in itself, and it wrong to attribute this motivation to all dataminers.
