You are making generic claims with nothing to back them up. Some sites clearly allow web scraping in certain situations, such as DataDirect for mythtv.<BR>
<BR>
I would encourage you also to read the terms of use here:<BR>

I would, however, appreciate if you would point me to a specific state or federal statute which says "web scraping" and proscribes it. I have the feeling you will not find anything like this.<BR>

The copyright holder licenses several organizations to distribute
their product.

Zondervan is a publisher, not the copyright holder.

Web scraping is in and of itself a copyright violation.
No assumption there.
The only assumption here is your expectation of aid in the commission
of a crime.
