How?

Because OpenAI built their entire business around shamelessly scraping anything that had bits on it.

  • Maybe. But scraping isn't abuse. Seems a bit different?

    • Quoting the OP

      > These checks are part of how we protect our first-party products from abuse like bots, scraping, fraud, and other attempts to misuse the platform.

      That implies that OpenAI (or at least this employee) considers scraping abuse.

    • The top comment categorized scraping as abuse ("abuse such as [...] scraping") - that's precisely why some accuse its author of lack of self awareness.
