The “scraping” problem is not hard. Just charge for the data with #bitcoin /lightning at 2x the cost of service provision. Then the more they scrape the more profit you make. QED.
Or using proof of work with a very low difficulty for normal user behavior so that users do not feel it and increase difficulty exponentially with data consumption to limit those who abuse it. Hard to belief Elon Musk is not creative enough to figure out better solution than to rate limit normal users. Using proof of work instead of LN has the benefit that paying with electricity is native to any computer and users do not need spend the mental costs of authorizing a monetary payment.
