The process of web scraping is typically performed through the use of a web scraper. This tool automates the process of extracting data from websites, making it a much more efficient and effective process. There are many different types of web scrapers available, ranging from free open-source software to sophisticated paid tools that offer advanced features.
Moreover, in order to deter automated data extraction, webmasters are implementing increasingly sophisticated detection measures, such as user traffic capacity control, CAPTCHAs, and browser fingerprinting, which make web scraping more challenging.
Browser fingerprinting not only prevents web scrapers from operating, but it can also have an impact on the accuracy of the data gathered. The fingerprint can be used to trace a user's online activities, which may have an impact on the information that web scrapers collect. The data gathered by the scraper could not precisely reflect the content of the website if a user's browsing habits are unusual or inconsistent. As a result, analyses and conclusions drawn from the gathered data may be flawed.
