AidaP is scraping Mumsnet threads, and grading them

Honestly, this man is obsessed. He has now created a program to scrape and grade Mumsnet threads from this board.

What is this?

Oh yes, I have downloaded most of mumsnet and we will be doing embeddings of the content to try to understand how does the rot and hate builds and spreads.

I never had so much hate and delusion on my hard drive before 😅

My posts are abundantly clear to anyone with a basic level of English.

The deliberate misinterpretation of some of them by some of the Usual Suspects is as obvious as it is amusing.

In fact, I'm so confident that I have the measure of many here that I can almost predict word for word some of the posts - including yours - that will come next...

😂

Keep digging poppet. We see you. I'm guessing I've made your scraping list.

I’ve just wasted precious minutes of my life reading the opening post of ‘are we women on the inside’ thread (reader - don’t bother) and I see it was written by our mansplainer Hazel. All makes sense now.

I'm not convinced - but happy to be proven wrong - that that's the case.

But then there's a tricky situation here, isn't there? This AidaP is apparently no longer an account holder here, so is not logging in and making uncomfortable posts.
They are, by their own admission, scraping the site - a public site - with web-tools to feed into their own bizarre little project.

Unwelcome, totally; but I don't think illegal.

The point isn't to defend their action - only a lamentable halfwit would think that - but to illustrate that I don't think there is any actual, real recourse in law to deal with this.

When they signed up as a member they entered a clickwrap agreement, they may want to argue in court that any contract was broken at the point at which they were kicked off the site. The site's lawyers may want to make a case that browsewrap is relevant here. The usual argument against it is that the user couldn't have knowledge of the Ts&Cs, but that wouldn't be true here where they had previously been a member.

There is also, as others have said, though other possible relevant legislation such as GDPR, copyright law and the Computer Misuse Act.

I'll bow to your greater understanding of the behaviour of lamentable halfwits.

SupremeCommanderOfEverything · 29/04/2026 13:05

should we now preface every post we make, whatever the topic, with the phrase "i believe TWAW and anybody that says otherwise is a nasty poo poo bum"?

RedToothBrush · 29/04/2026 13:07

HazelLemur · 29/04/2026 12:40

So no, you can't. Thought not.

If he does anything whatsoever with the data he's very much into the realm of stalking and harassment but crack on believing it's all fine Aida.

BambooLampshade · 29/04/2026 13:11

Has anyone got the sign? The interrupteron sign? I had one, but some gerbils ate it.

TheBroonOneAndTheWhiteOne · 29/04/2026 13:13

.........but the actual laws that forbid AidaP doing what she's doing.

He. What he's doing.

Boiledbeetle · 29/04/2026 13:13

HazelLemur · 29/04/2026 12:30

Does it really matter what he's doing in isolation on another part of the internet?

I understand your immediate, pathological fear - it's justifiable - but what difference does his behaviour make?

Many of the Usual Suspects on this thread have gone out of their way to present an image they are fundamentally unconcerned by his activities, which if it were wholly true would be great, so I can't see the issue.

Ultimately, there's nothing we can do about it. Let him make his silly little lists, say I; it makes zero difference here.

Maybe not to you.

He's pissed at the women on this board.

And...

Did you just misgender Aida?

BiologicalRobot · 29/04/2026 11:17

I'm confused at what you are reporting as your posts aren't very clear.

Accusing another poster of gaslighting when they weren't..?

saying someone is "mentally incapable" is report-worthy, no?

BambooLampshade · 29/04/2026 13:16

Boiled! Please bring out the sign! This guy is becoming tedious.

Of course he did. Cos not even transpeople and their allies believe men can become women.

Keep reading, there's a good debate on sofas and reclining chairs.

Plus some stunning photos of myself reclining in a game of thrones knife recliner!

BettyBooper · 29/04/2026 13:17

Man who says he's a woman, very very interested in discussing another man who says he's a woman. For some reason.

Says he doesn't know who AidaP is whilst also says 'the usual suspects '.

Yeah, nothing to see here...

😂

I cant comment as several of Hazels posts have been deleted, including the one quoted in my post.

SupremeCommanderOfEverything · 29/04/2026 13:19

Hazel thinks that MN T&C are legally meaningless.

Can someone remind me what the outcome was when Aston Uni scraped MN?

The reason I posted this thread yesterday was that I was viscerally shocked by what he is doing.

It brought up my "female fear of men" reaction - like being stalked. He's not just lurking on a site for women that he's been banned from, he's rating and assessing us, and boasting about it.

Just horrible, and I thought that other women should know about how this man is behaving. We need to know that we're being monitored like that.

To bring it back on track (maybe), yes thank you for posting. I don't go on bluesky mainly because of the hate from men like Aida so I wouldn't have known.

Taytoface · 29/04/2026 13:25

Do you think he will create a terf league table? Now that I am here for.

Catiette · 29/04/2026 13:26

TheBroonOneAndTheWhiteOne · 29/04/2026 11:52

There were fruit ones as well.

It's a shame they're not made anymore.

At least one good thing's come from weirdly patronising word choices! I have good news for you, Broon...

You can still get Poppets on Amazon (and I sighted some in Tescos -I think - within the last few years...)!!!

Some of those sold on Amazon are now in bags, which is obviously only slightly less inappropriate and bizarre than using the word to address other posters on a feminist board... but the little poppy boxes are still available too.

Taytoface · 29/04/2026 13:25

just came here to say that. It might encourage healthy competition among the TERF-minded.

Do you think points will be awarded for style as well as complexity?

BambooLampshade · 29/04/2026 13:26

Anyone who thinks that AidaP is going to stop with a minor bit of obsessive TERF grading, is very naive. When women are afraid, trust us.

His latest offerings:

I should probably thank them, this exposed that mumsnet hides certain topics from search engines, aka they do not want robots to think that this is what the website is all about, but allow those topics to exist anyway.

Just scraped those too and the pattern is very clear:

And then:

- Specific named individuals
- Contentious news framings ("trans mom kidnapped son")
- Potentially harmful claims ("DIY hormones without health care professionals")
- Meta (the one about your scraping)

I collected that piece of data in detail too, as it matters
