> If you want people to not scrape, offer API’s

many sites want to prevent scrapers because they don't want their information aggregated - things like price lists and product availability etc.

I know groceries sites do this, to prevent customers from knowing price histories of products. They want to raise prices, then offer a discount to make it seem like the discount is legitimate.
