17.1.3. Use any robot, spider, crawler, scraper or other automated means or interface not provided by us to access our Services or to extract data;

Has nothing to do with the blockchain which is steem, as a witness you should know the difference between steem and steemit inc.

What clause makes clear that 17.1.3 only applies to Steemit.com and not to Steem? The services and data on Steemit.com are dependent on Steem. Steemit Inc. are the creators of Steem aren't they? The license for Steem makes clear that Steemit Inc. own the copyright for Steem and thus it is debatable as to whether Steem is a service of Steemit Inc. or not.

I'd say this comes down to the finer points of contract law more than it does an issue of technicality of the kind that all witnesses are required to be qualified to understand.

We are changing some things around, But the market will balance itself out. If they feel it does not deserve such a high reward it will be flagged that is the only way to fix this issue at the moment.
