What does a scrapper mean?
Oh OK. Thanks for the correction and description.
It's a tool that basically pretends to be a user, it opens the website just like you and ~~i~~ other users do. It collects the data (images text videos) just by browsing around.
They used to be prolific, but the problem is that they use a lot of resources on the website's end. Instead big website owners started offering public APIs which allow bots to collect data without taxing the server too much
Thank you for explaining.
