Well... To use a product one must agree to their terms, whatever they may be. If you don't agree, simply don't use it. Make your own web-crawler.

People can put anything they want in their terms, no-one reads those things anyway. They can write that they will own your house and kill your mother if you agree to the terms and people will still scroll right past it and click on 'agree'.
In fact there was a company not too long ago who did almost exactly that. I believe that they changed their terms on April 1st to include this:
"By agreeing to these terms you sell your soul to this company."
They were trying to prove that no one reads the damn things and no-one did. Two weeks later they offered everyone who sold their soul to them to get it back for free.
