There are plenty of other tools in out there, some of them even mentioned here in flyertalk, that allow users to scrape or use websites outside their standard terms of use.
They are not scams.
I wasn't commenting on anything other than KVS.

Apparently yu agree that it violates the TOS of various web sites and data sources. I'll mention that it also summarily drops features unannounced and since all those who pay have ever done is make a required "donation" based on the functionality they seek, they are simply left without what they paid for. And judging by the number of complaints by donors here, it's also not very reliable. I was right - SCAM.

I'll refrain from further comment.
