Is there a way to write a script...

that would download all of the journals in places like JSTOR, ebrary, etc. and not get caught? I understand Aaron Swartz tried doing this and he got in a shitload of trouble. It looks like he was doing it from his own JSTOR account, which is how he got caught.

eta. i was wrong. he actually did something a bit more than just a script and his account:

Is it wise to solicit information on a public forum about how to commit a crime?

i'm not intending to do anything. i'm shit at software. maybe it's "unwise" if i was stating my intent to do something like that, though, but i am curious. looking deeper into what Aaron Swartz did, i pretty much answered my own question, though.
