Is that argument in consideration of the fact that padmapper started off by scraping CL directly and forwarding everyone back over to CL?



They used to do that. They were told to stop. They stopped. They found a new way that didn't affect CL bandwidth. So what they started off doing is not all that relevant to what they are doing now. However, what this Chrome Extension is doing is pretty much what PadMapper was doing... so it would follow that this Chrome Extension will get smacked. Or worse... the extension users each get smacked.
