Another development in the ongoing Craigslist data scraping story: Craigslist has added in a new proviso for those posting ads, telling them that Craigslist now becomes the "exclusive licensee" of the content in that ad."Clicking 'Continue' confirms that craigslist is the exclusive licensee of this content, with the exclusive right to enforce copyrights against anyone copying, republishing, distributing or preparing derivative works without its consent," Craigslist informs users posting ads.The move is the latest in an ongoing situation that has seen the listings site send out cease and desist lettersto a number of developers that have created apps to navigate Craigslist's extensive content, and going so far as to sue two of them, Padmapper and 3Taps.
