I may have access to a search API that uses JSON based on a URL GET. They are quick to ban and the appeal process takes a long time.

Now, if I use this from my website through PHP and hit it too many times, I guess it would be easy to ban (just banning a single IP).

On the other hand, if I were to use Jquery to handle the call and returned data...

Then would it still be possible for the API owner to ban my site? If yes, how?

Does a Jquery api call still give any signal that they came from my site even though its client side (javascript)?

Answer 1

Then would it still be possible for the API owner to ban my site?

No, not if you don't supply anything else in the query that is unique for your site. Such as access credentials.

And is it morally correct? No

Is it legal? Probably not, i guess that the webservice has some sort of usage-rules
