 * Hi Tobias, I’m worried about people coming to my [website ](http://ninjakun.net/database/)
   and scraping the tablepress data. To avoid this I’ve set the pagination at 10
   rows per page and have row details enabled so a lot of the data is hidden within
   the rows, but i’m unsure if this will protect me against data scrapers / scripts/
   bots?.
 * Thanks for all your hard work, I’ve loved working with Tablepress these last 
   few months.

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble as well as for the late reply.
   I’ve been on holidays and therefore couldn’t reply earlier.
 * No, sorry, this will not protect you from such scraping. The HTML data is still
   in the page. Note that there is no real protection. If you put content on the
   web and someone wants it, they will be able to get and copy it.
 * Regards,
    Tobias
