The analogy of pouring waste is not accurate, we are looking at what is done with the service, e.g. it would be the equivalent of allowing drinking the water but not cooking with it, or using electricity for specific devices. The contract is a debit/volume, what I do with it is irrelevant, and by this analogy on the web I should be allowed to scrape if I stay in the allowed bandwidth by the website.
