Out of curiosity how do you guys think they managed to scrape LinkedIn on such a large scale?
I've been wanting to do some social graph experimentation on it (small scale - say 1000 people near me) but concluded I probably couldn't scrape enough via raw scraping without freaking out their anti-scraping. (And API is a non-starter since that basically says everything is verboten).
