Is it allowed to collect information on VKontakte if the page is open?

Question

In contact with

I'm going to write a script that will follow my friends who have a profile open - exactly OPEN.
He will keep track of who they added / removed from friends, what new group they created.
Is this collection of information legal? The information is in the public domain, if the profile was closed, and I followed, then yes, I think it would be a violation.

Answer 1

Answer 2

Only if you do not parse their copyrighted content (pictures, photos, text, music, etc.).
But it is with groups and friends that even a closed profile will not be a violation.

Answer 3

In general, Cambgidge Analitics was bent over for this
