Company creates problem. Requires users to change because of created problem. You defend company creating problem.
That's the logical flaw.
If you see no flaws in defending a monopolist, well, you cannot be helped then.

I don't think Microsoft invented scrapping. Or LLM training.
Also, GitHub doesn't have an issue with Microsoft scraping its data. They can just directly access whatever data they want. And rate-limiting non logged in accounts won't affect Microsoft's LLM training at all.
I'm not defending a monopolist because of monopolist actions. First of all because GitHub doesn't have any kind of monopoly. There are plenty of git forges. And second of all. How does this make their position on the market stronger? If anything, it makes it weaker.
