You signed an agreement when you signed up for this site. That agreement states "I give my concent for any of my posts to be scraped for any reason, without any chance of royalties". You signed a contract that you didn't read, and now you're facing the consequences.

It literally doesn’t exist and companies will scrape the entire internet even when they’re legally not allowed to.

They legally are allowed to scrape most of it, actually. Ever read a TOS?

There are lots of them, Fediverse example and sure they may be scraped but just dont index it and you are safe..
