    Except it isn’t. There’s no law that says you can’t try to navigate to a URL. There are laws that say that you can’t bypass attempts to authenticate/protect content… but remember the endpoint isn’t behind authentication.

    Assuming I am from the US?
    Because if so, it doesn’t apply

    But I appreciate your time for the explanation.

      I mean… I’d like to see any law that can be construed that directly accessing a URL that’s unprotected is illegal. I’m not an expert in EU law on this for sure… but I’ve read many things pertaining to EU law and never found one that would lead me to believe otherwise.
