Thats a crime yeah and if Alphabet co wants to sue you for $1.34 damages then they have that right, just as we should have the right to sue them if their AI crawlers make our site unusable and plagiarize our work to the effect of thousands of dollars, or even press charges for the criminal act of intentional disruption of services.

So yeah, I stand by my statement that anyone thinks this is a crime, or should be a crime, has a poor understanding of either the technology or the law. In this case, even mentioning Alphabet suing for damages means that you don’t know the difference between criminal law and civil law.
press charges for the criminal act of intentional disruption of services
That’s not a crime, and again reveals gaps in your knowledge on this topic.
Who said anything about DDoS? I’m using ad blockers and saving/caching/archiving websites with a single computer, and not causing damage. I’m just using the website in a way the owner doesn’t like. That’s not a crime, nor should it be.

That is actually a crime, you will get prison for DDoS in USA, UK, and EU. Presumably you will disappear if you do it in China.

You were talking about $1.34 in damages, which doesn’t sound like downtime or disruption.
