Default Re: Ethics of Datamining

I don't see how any of this is unethical. It is the sort of thing that either is or isn't allowed and then is or isn't done. What would perhaps be unethical is if one somehow could generate HHs with complete/perfect information in some way and then datamine that. All the hands shown are public knowledge and available online or in a card room. It seems fine that people can gather (or ignore) such data any way they wish.

However, a slightly more interesting question is who here feels datamining should be against the T&C rules (I'm assuming that the posters here benefit from datamining since we're most likely to be the ones doing it).
